The ruling on a wife telling her husband that if he prevents her from extending her hand to the seller, it is being strict

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: When a husband stands with his wife in a store, and the seller extends an item, the wife extends her hand to take the item. When her husband forbade her from doing so, she said, “This is being strict, and it is a matter that does not warrant this strictness.” What is the ruling on this statement?

Answer:
Do not pay attention to this statement; it is the statement of an ignorant person. It is not being strict; it is enjoining what is right. It is not being strict. A woman should cover her hand and her palm from a man. If she wants to take something, she takes it from behind her garment, placing her garment or her shawl over her hand, or she wears the gloves called “qafazayn” on her hands, or she covers her hand with her garment or her abaya. This is obligatory, because if a woman’s palms are exposed, it leads to fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). Yes. So do not pay attention to this talk; it is wrong talk.
