Is it permissible to kiss one's wife in front of her discerning and non-discerning children?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no harm in a husband kissing his wife in front of their children, if it is a kiss that expresses respect, appreciation, and affection, and makes the children feel the presence of love and harmony among family members. However, kissing for the purpose of enjoyment and pleasure should not be seen by discerning children.
