I said that I don’t like it when she hugs me when we see each other because she isn’t a mahram. My sister told me I’m being extreme and that it doesn’t matter since she’s “family,” and I can just ask for forgiveness, and my intention isn’t bad. What is the correct approach here, and how do we differentiate obedience from extremism?\\n\"}]}","answer":"{\"ops\":[{\"insert\":\"Following Allah's commands is not extremism, it's obedience. Intentions don't make it okay to disobey Allah.\\n\\nThe best course of action is to maintain good manners, respectfully set boundaries, and explain that you are trying to follow what Allah has commanded. You can still be warm, respectful, and caring without physical contact.\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9ff10b76658b4c2329d2","tag":"Relationships: Opposite Gender","count":80},{"_id":"668d9fe20b76658b4c23280c","tag":"Relationships: Extended Family","count":47},{"_id":"668da0830b76658b4c23393f","tag":"Relationships: Sibling","count":29}],"createdOn":"2025-12-10T20:12:40.424Z"}
