Question:
The questioner asks: What is the age of a non-mahram woman whose hand-shaking is forbidden?
Answer:
Yes, the woman who has reached maturity by menstruating, who has reached the age of menstruation and thus moved from childhood to the age of womanhood, it is forbidden for a man to shake her hand if she is not a mahram to him. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never touched the hand of a woman who was not lawful for him. He used to take the pledge of allegiance from women by words, not by shaking hands. So the woman whose hand-shaking is forbidden is the mature woman. Yes.
