I hugged my cousin, is it a sin?
Hug
Question:
I hugged my cousin (my aunt's daughter). But not with any wrong intention.
Is it a sin..?
- Mann
Sister Z's Answer:
Asalaamualaikum Brother Mann, (assuming you are male),
Islamically, you are not mahram to your female cousins - so they are required to observe hijaab infront of you.
So, no you are not allowed to hug them.
In my opinion, I would not dwell on this - as you say you had no wrong intention.
Do tawbah and in future, just take care to observe the limits set by Allah.
