Is it permissible for a woman in ihram to wear gloves?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman wore gloves during her 'Umrah, and she knew the ruling of the Shari'ah, but her husband told her to wear them because her hands are scarred.
Answer:
This is ignorance on the part of this husband, may Allah guide him. It is not permissible for a woman in ihram to wear gloves; it is sufficient for her to cover her hands with her garment or her abaya. As for wearing gloves by a woman in ihram, it is forbidden and prohibited, being one of the prohibitions of ihram. Therefore, she owes a fidyah, which is either feeding six poor people, giving each poor person half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg), or fasting for three days, or slaughtering a sheep. She has the choice among these three things. And the second time, she should not wear gloves while in ihram; she should cover her hands with her garment.
