Shaking Hands with the Opposite Sex while Wearing Gloves
Islam has prohibited to shake hands with the opposite gender, because in Islam it is prohibited to touch a non mahram. So my question is can a man shake hands with a woman, while wearing gloves, please answer as soon as possible.
is prohibited in Islam for a man to touch non mahram woman and he agreed with it’s Haram, but can he touch a woman after wearing gloves. means if you’re wearing gloves can he shake hands with a woman and we know the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ is very clear that,
the prophet صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ said it is better to hammer a nail or a needle into the head rather than touch a non mahram, the Hadith is very strong, it’s very bold, it’s very direct, it is preferable to hammer a nail or a needle in the head rather than touch a non mahram woman.
So therefore touching non mahram is completely Haram, it’s not prohibit, it is prohibited, and it’s not permitted.
Regarding a question that, can you touch a woman wearing gloves.
Now there are some Hadith in which the prophet is said to have shaken hands of ladies beneath a cloth, there are a few Hadith but all these hadiths are Zaif, they are weak, there is no authentic Hadith in which the prophet ever shook hands with ladies, in fact there are various Hadith of Aisha may Allah be pleased with her who the wife of the Prophet saying, that the prophet in his life has never touched any non mahram Woman.
So based on this it is not permitted to shake hands with woman neither is it permitted to shake hand wearing a glove, because yet even if you wear a glove and you shake hands of course it’s Haram there going to be feelings you cannot say nothing is happening to you.
So it’s not permitted to shake hands with glove or without glove both are prohibited.
