Is it permissible for a girl to exaggerate physical closeness with her close female friend, such as kissing her on the neck and sitting on her lap? And is this act considered displeasing to Allah?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
We previously discussed love between women, its categories, and the differing opinions regarding embracing and kissing between those of the same gender when there is no lust. However, if lust is present, it is not permissible, and one must be wary of following the footsteps of Satan. We also cautioned against extravagance in loving friends and advised that a Muslim woman should not reveal all her secrets to her friend.
