Re: Inappropriate eid hugs
**hug is between mahrams only and that too [except between husband and wife] should be from the side of her rather than the front...kinda hug from side taht is approach her from her side. this is the tradition back home in indian subcontinent. hugs between naa-mahrams is not permitted.
but, all these things go with one's level of piety [which is again wrong coz the re is no grey area in islam]. what i'm saying is that these restrictions people apply to themselves as they grow older and become more pious. its culturallly very complicated. for instance, cousins are naa-maHram and women should come in Hijaab infront of them but how many people do it :(**
