What is the ruling on shaking hands with a woman?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes, shaking hands with a woman is not permissible except with a mahram (a relative one may not marry). It is not permissible with an older woman or a younger woman, not through a barrier and not directly, because the trial (fitnah) is present.
