Question
Is there a halacha that requires kissing one's parents' hands on Friday night?
Answer
Hello,
It is mentioned in the poskim that there is significance to this according to the teachings of Kabbalah.
The original source mentions only the matter of kissing one's mother's hand, but some poskim have written that there is also significance in kissing one's father's hand.
