Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a man to kiss his uncle’s wife, who raised him since he was young, given that she is elderly?
Answer:
If she is not among his mahram (relatives one may not marry) and did not breastfeed him, it is not permissible for him to kiss her or shake her hand, because she is a non-mahram to him. Even if she raised him when he was young, she does not become a mahram to him except through one of two things: either kinship or breastfeeding. Yes.
