The ruling on kissing female mahrams, such as a paternal aunt or maternal aunt, and the like

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, regarding kissing sisters, paternal aunts, and maternal aunts who are mahrams, is it permissible or not permissible?

Answer:
It is permissible for a man to kiss his female mahrams, but on their heads, and he does not kiss their cheeks or mouths. That is only for the husband. As for the mahram, he kisses the woman who is his mahram on her head, in order to avoid fitnah (trial, discord or temptation).
