The ruling on shaking hands with one’s wife’s mother and traveling with her
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu 'Abd from Jeddah says: Is it permissible for us to shake hands with one’s wife’s mother and travel with her?
Answer:
Yes, the wife’s mother is a mahram (a relative one may not marry) by marriage, so you are a mahram to your wife’s mother. You shake hands with her and travel with her, unless there is fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) in shaking hands with her, in which case you avoid that. Yes.
