Is it permissible to greet the elderly women by kissing their heads on the day of the festival?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We are in an area where, on the days of the festival, we greet the elderly women by kissing their heads. What is the ruling on that?

The Shaykh : It is not permissible for a person to greet the elderly women by kissing their heads, whether on the days of the festival or at any other time, because that is forbidden. However, if the elderly women are known relatives, it is sufficient to greet them without kissing their heads or hands. Yes.
