The ruling on a woman in ihram wearing socks and gloves
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: What is the ruling on a woman in ihram wearing socks and gloves?
Answer:
Gloves? No, it is not permissible to wear them, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said that a woman in ihram does not wear the burqu' (face veil) or the niqab (face veil), nor gloves that are sewn over the face or sewn over the hands; she does not wear them. However, if she covers her palms with a garment, there is nothing wrong with that. Covering her face with the khimar (head covering) is obligatory for her in the presence of men. As for socks on the feet, there is nothing wrong with them; in fact, this is more modest and better for her to wear them, as no prohibition has come regarding them.
