Question:
Is it a violation of the prohibitions of ihram for a woman to wear leather socks out of ignorance? What is required of a woman who wore leather socks during 'Umrah while ignorant?
Answer:
There is no harm in a woman wearing socks on her feet, even if she is not ignorant, and wearing covering for her body and clothing, because her body is 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered). There is no objection to her wearing on her feet what covers her, such as leather socks or socks. What is forbidden is that she wears gloves on her hands, which are the socks of the hands. This is forbidden; the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited it. As for wearing them on her feet, there is no objection; rather, this is better because it covers her.
