Is the forbidden kiss considered zina?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the kiss considered zina?

Answer:
It is minor zina, one of the means to zina, from the category of al-lamm.
Q: Is the person subject to ta'zir?
The Shaykh: It is one of the means to zina, unless one repents to Allah from sins. It falls under His saying:
And He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills.وَيَغْفِرُ مَا دُونَ ذَلِكَ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ
[Surah al-Nisa: 48]. It falls under sins, such as kissing, touching, and bad speech. We ask Allah for well-being.
