Advice to a woman who is overly familiar with non-mahram men

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence the Shaykh, Abu 'Abd al-Rahman from Yemen says: May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh. What is your advice for a woman who shakes hands with people who are not her mahram, laughs with them, and talks to them?

Answer:
It is not permissible for her to do that. It is not permissible for her to be overly familiar with people who are not her mahram, nor to uncover her face and hands in their presence. Rather, she should cover herself completely if she is in a gathering with men who are not her mahram. Also, she should not be overly familiar in her speech, laughter, or joking. Yes.
