Once a girl reaches pubity, can she stil hug her dad and Brother?, Also what is the meaning of the name Shahzad, Shahbaz, Shazia, Nazia, Nazish, Riasat thank you

Answer

1. In principle, it will be permissible to hug any ?Mahram?, i.e. that person whom it is Haraam to marry forever, father, brother, etc. However, if there is fear of Fitnah, especially in these times of darkness and evil, abstaining will be compulsory.

2. Shahzad ? prince; Shazia ? unique; Nazia ? quick, sharp, stealth; Shahbaz ? big eagle; Nazish ? proud; Riasat ? leadership.
