The Ruling on Kissing Young Girls and Children
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding kissing young girls and small children, is there a prohibition against it for a person?
The Shaykh : If they are his own children from his loins, there is no prohibition; rather, there is encouragement to do so, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "He who does not show mercy will not be shown mercy." As for the children of others, one must look at the situation: if the one kissing them might be exposed to some desire, then it is not permissible, especially if the one being kissed is a girl. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah bless you. Regarding the statement that when a man comes to prayer, his sins are placed on his shoulders, and when he bows and prostrates, his sins fall off him—has this been reported or not?
The Shaykh : As for this specific detail, I do not know of it. However, that prayer expiates sins, there are many, many hadiths regarding this.
The presenter : May Allah bless you. And in it...
The Shaykh : Blessed is He.
