Question:
Once again, Honorable Shaykh Abu 'Abdullah, we asked Shaykh Salih a moment ago about his mother, who entered the state of ihram via Jeddah while wearing socks. When she reached the Haram, she heard some people criticizing her for wearing socks. What is the validity of that? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
There is no blame on a woman for wearing socks on her feet, but it is not permissible for her to wear them on her hands. A woman in ihram does not wear gloves on her hands. As for socks on the feet, there is no harm in them; in fact, they are better because they cover her. Yes.
