The questioner : The questioner, or questioner, asks: Is it necessary for a woman to prostrate on the palms of her hands without a barrier, and likewise on the soles of her feet?
The Shaykh : It is not so. A woman prostrates on the ground while covering her hands and covering her feet. Many scholars say that the hands and feet are 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) in prayer, and a woman must cover them. It was the custom of the women of the Companions to wear gloves. Do you know what gloves are? They are the daws and madasayis that are placed on the hand, because that covers them. There is no blame on her if she does not touch the ground directly. Yes.
