Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: My wife's aunt is elderly. Is it permissible for me to shake her hand, given that she is one of the older women who have passed the age of childbearing?
Answer:
No, you do not shake hands with a woman except a mahram (a relative one may not marry) or your wife only. This woman is not a mahram. Your wife's aunt is forbidden to you as a marriage partner, but she is not a mahram. Yes.
