The ruling on a woman covering her face and hands in prayer and outside of it

Question:
The question is: Are the face and hands part of the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered)? And how do you reconcile the statement "except her face and hands" regarding prayer, especially when there is a need, with the statement of 'Aishah: "When we were on the road to Hajj, we would uncover our faces. When we passed by the men, we would cover ourselves, or we would hasten on." This is the question.

Answer:
It was mentioned earlier in the talk what clarifies this topic, namely that the face and hands, and covering her hands with anything other than gloves, such as the niqab (face veil), the khimar (head covering), the 'abayah (outer garment), and the like, are prohibited. The woman is forbidden from wearing the niqab and gloves. The niqab is placed on the face, covering it, and it has one or two openings, one for the eye or for both eyes. The niqab covers the front of the face up to the eyes, and she lets down what is on her head and forehead, leaving the eyes and the area around them exposed. All of this is forbidden; the woman in ihram (the consecrated state of pilgrimage) is forbidden from it. However, she is commanded to cover her face with the khimar, as well as covering what is on her face with what resembles it when she is in the presence of men during tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah), sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah), or in the mosque.
Likewise, her hands: she should not wear gloves. Gloves are two coverings, two sheets of material, placed on the hands to protect them from cold or thorns, as is done by those who carry rocks in their hands; they put coverings on their hands so that the roughness of the rocks does not wear them down.
The point is that the two coverings, which are gloves, are forbidden for the woman in ihram. However, there is no harm in her covering her hands with her khimar, her jilbab (outer garment), or her 'abayah (outer garment); she is commanded to do so. Gloves are one thing, and covering with the khimar is another. The niqab is one thing, and covering with the khimar and the like is another. Therefore, there is no contradiction between the texts, between those that are gathered and those that agree, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
