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

Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Is it obligatory for a woman to wear socks on her feet and cover her hands in prayer, or is that not a condition for covering the feet and hands? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
A woman must cover her entire body, except for her face if there are no non-mahram men present. She must cover her entire body, including her hands and feet, because a woman is entirely 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) in prayer, except for her face if there are no non-mahram men present. It is permissible whether she covers her hands and feet with socks or with clothing; the important thing is that she covers them in prayer. This is based on the hadith of Asma' where she asked if a woman could pray in a thobe (long robe) without a lower garment?
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . Yes.
