The ruling on a woman wearing gloves in prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The last question from our sister in Sudan: What is the ruling on praying while a woman is wearing gloves?

Answer:
There is no harm; she may pray in gloves. This is better for her to cover her hands in prayer with gloves, or with her jilbab that she is wearing, or otherwise. This is better, and nothing remains uncovered except the face. This is better. And if she uncovers both hands, that is valid according to the most correct of the scholars' opinions.
And this is all if she is in a place where there is no non-mahram. As for if there is a man who is not a mahram to her, she covers her entire body, even the face, while she is in prayer. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
