Is my advice to someone who published a picture of a man kissing his wife on her forehead—that this is spreading indecency—and my citing of the verse: "Indeed, those who like indecency to be spread among those who have believed will have a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter. And Allah knows and you do not know" correct and appropriate?

It is disliked for a man to kiss his wife on her forehead in front of people, due to the indecency involved, and the dissemination of such an image is not appropriate as it may lead to temptation. Gentleness is important in offering advice and inviting to Allah.
