Uncle Hugging Wife

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askmufti.co.za

Q: Is it permissible for my wife’s uncle to hug my wife? Her uncle is her mother’s sister’s husband and has no other connection to the family.

A: They are not Mahram to each other so it is not permissible for them to touch each other. Hijaab between them is compulsory. Advise them with kindness.
