A woman covering her hands and feet in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: Is it obligatory for a woman to cover her hands and feet in prayer?
The Shaykh:
Yes, indeed. Nothing of her should be visible except her face, provided there are no non-mahram men present. That is, if there are no men who are not her mahram, she does not uncover anything in prayer except her face. However, if she has mahram men present, she covers her face as well. Yes.
The questioner:
Then she says, may Allah preserve you: Does that mean she is required to wear socks in every prayer?
The Shaykh:
She covers her feet with socks or with a garment. Refer to the previous answer. Yes.
