Question
Is it permissible to shake hands with a sister?
Answer
Hugging and kissing are prohibited in any case, as the Shulchan Aruch writes, since it is extremely inappropriate and a forbidden act and a foolish deed. Regarding shaking hands, one should not be lenient except in cases of great necessity.
