Hurmat E Musahara in Urdu | Touching My Mother in Law in Islam | حرمت مصاہرت کے مسائل

Respectable Scholar! 

Once we sat in our home altogether on a bed whilst my fiancee's mother or mother in law sat beside me. I felt hot desire for her, suddenly, my body touched her and then I got separated from her after a few seconds. 

Thanks to God that I didn't feel the hotness of her body at all because of her clothes. Then, after some period, I got married with her daughter. Is this marriage valid or there is some ruling regarding Hurmat E Musahra? 

According to Ahnaf, you can't marry the daughter of whom you touched with the desire of having intercourse or kissed. Ibne Arbi writes:

People differ regarding touching, whether the ruling is same as intercourse or not. There are two schools of thoughts. 

According to Malikia and Ahnaf, touching has the same rule as intercourse, meaning Hurmamt E Musahra will come true. 

Additionally, the Fuqaha write: One who is touched by a woman sexually, her mother and daughter will be Haram on him. This ruling of prohibition comes true with touching, kissing, and watching private parts sexually, as with intercourse. 

So according to Ahnaf, your marriage is forbidden with the daughter of whom you touched with such feelings.

According to Hanabila, Hurmat E Musahra comes true with both forbidden sexuality and marriage whilst Shawafe and Malika stand up for Hurmat E Musahra to be just with marriage. 

So, Muslims should be very cautious when having some meeting with their relatives to prevent such situations. Islam has set all the limits for men and women to keep the distance among themselves to avoid unwanted rulings, lead them to regret forever. Wife's mother interference is completely forbidden to avoid creating complications for both her daughter and the husband. 

The husband is not allowed to come closer to relatives of wife, and they should be in Hijab always when visiting husband home.
