Will hurmat-e-musaaharah become established through shaking hands with an old woman?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: If a person has a stomach issue, when he eats spicy or high calories foods, he gets some white drops coming out from his penis in a normal state without any errection or lust. Now if he shakes hands with an old woman without any lust or erection, will this be hurmat?

Please note that there is no lust or erection for this old lady. The person has a stomach heat problem because of which he gets these drops when he eats spicy food.

Bismillaah

A: It does not cause hurmat, but it is not permissible to shake the hands of a strange woman.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
