Question
Is a woman sinning if she shakes hands with a man when she is wearing gloves?
Answer
Praise be to Allah.It is not permissible for
a woman to shake hands with a non-mahram man even if she is wearing gloves
or she shakes hands from under a cloth or abayah. All of that counts as
shaking hands even if there is some kind of barrier.
