The Ruling on Telephone Contact in Maintaining Family Ties

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
You know, Honorable Shaykh, that in these times the means of communication have multiplied. Does the telephone suffice in place of direct contact with them?

Answer:
It suffices according to need. If he is unable to go to them, he contacts them by telephone. But if he is able to go to them, he goes to them, attends to them, sees them, and they see him. Yes.
