muslim question?

[kingfencer]

so i saw on tv, this united nation guy came to greet a family. he shook the guys hand and extended his hand to the wife, but the wife snubbed her, so muslim woman can't touch another man?

It is for men and women ...
A man can not touch a woman except his wife ...
Some use gloves to avoid that but I do not know if it is correct !!
so it not only women.

Is there a certain age when this becomes "law"? I can't see it applying to children.

I think but not sure when the young woman starts to get her period (between the ages of 9 and 15) ... same for young men !

I think my IQ has gone down a couple of points after reading this thread.

Very religious Jews have the same type of rule. I don't think they have hand chopping though.

lol its a muslim law not to disrespect a woman by touching her. It may not happen in present day, but its the mentality of every muslim to not do this. I'd hate to think what would happen to you in an arab prison for touching a woman the wrong way. My statement was only half serious.. they dont actually do that to you anymore
