Is it permissible to remove the glove and touch the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) directly to please one's mother?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This is a woman who serves her mother. She says: My mother feels uncomfortable with my wearing a glove while I remove the najasah (ritual impurity) from her. I mean? She says: My mother feels uncomfortable with my wearing a glove while I remove the najasah from her. Knowing that I have explained to her that it is not permissible for me to touch her 'awrah directly, is it permissible for me to remove the glove to please her?

Answer:
No, no, it is not permissible to touch directly. Wear the glove and convince your mother. If she is not convinced, do not accommodate her in this; it is not permissible. Yes.
