asking this question knows that shaking hands with a non-mahram woman is not permitted, then it is obvious that hugging or embracing her is also haraam and is more forbidden. The ruling on a relative who is not a mahram is the same as the ruling on a “stranger” (non-mahram).
With regard to relatives who are mahrams, such as paternal aunts and maternal aunts, it is permissible for a man to shake hands with them, but as for hugging and embracing and kissing on the mouth, this is not allowed because that may provoke desire, and disallowing it closes the door to evil. It is sufficient to kiss the head or nose.
s, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And when you ask (his wives) for anything you want, ask them from behind a screen, that is purer for your hearts and for their hearts”
[al-Ahzaab 33:53]
This verse includes both the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and other women, according to the more sound of the two scholarly opinions. Whoever says that it applies only to the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is saying something false for which there is no evidence. Allaah says concerning women in Soorat al Noor:
“and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband’s fathers”
[al-Noor 24:31 – interpretation of the meaning]
And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, when a woman wanted to shake hands with him: “I do not shake hands with women.” And ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: “The hand of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) never touched the hand of a woman; when he accepted their oath of allegiance it was by words only.” And it was narrated in al-Saheehayn from ‘Aa’ishah, in the story of the slander (al-ifk), that she said that when she heard the voice of Safwaan ibn al-Mu’attal, “I covered my face, but he had seen me before hijaab [before the command of hijaab was revealed].” This indicates that women used to cover their faces after the verse of hijaab was revealed.
