Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner says: What is the ruling on a woman wearing gloves even if there is no adornment on her palms?
The Shaykh : What a woman should do is wear gloves in the presence of non-mahram men, such as when she goes out to the market. If she does not do so, she should cover her hands with the end of her abaya and not expose her hands to men so that they look at them. This is because it leads to fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). How many corrupt souls have become attached to a woman when a man sees her hands and is pleased with them, resulting in fitnah (trial, discord or temptation).
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
