HUGGING AND KISSING

904

“Zaid, the son of Harithah came to Medina when the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, was in the house of Lady Ayesha, may Allah be pleased with her. Zaid came to the door and knocked. The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, hurried to him, with his cloak trailing. He hugged and kissed him.”

Tirmidhi with a chain up to the Mother of Believers, Lady Ayesha, may Allah be pleased with her, who related this.
