    ...monkeys have hands. The reasoning seems to be that the monkey's arm appendage is adapted for grasping, with four similar digits and one opposable one, aka the thumb. Monkeys can also use individual digits by themselves for pointing, scratching, etc. and can carry things much as we do suitcases.

    A paw on the other hand has claws, has no opposable digits, and all digits function together.
