The ruling on a woman shaking hands with a man who is not a mahram

Question:
The sister Amira asks: Is it permissible for a woman to greet men while wearing gloves, or is it not?

Answer:
The original ruling is that handshaking is not permissible, neither through gloves nor through clothing. A woman does not shake hands with a man who is not among her mahram (relatives one may not marry); rather, she limits herself to greeting him with words, without touching, and while behind a barrier. She greets him while wearing her hijab and does not shake his hand. Yes.
