Yes, Muslim women can ride a bike: nothing in Islam forbids it. Wear modest, practical clothing, secure your hijab and stay safe on the road.

Yes, Muslim men can wear compression leggings, but most scholars say not alone in public since they show the awrah's shape; wear shorts over them.

It depends: Muslims can watch women's sports when athletes dress modestly and the gaze stays clean; most scholars say men should avoid revealing kit.
