A male may look at the head, face, ears, shoulder, arms, wrists, ankles and feet of Maharim (i.e., those female with whom marriage is Haraam e.g. mother, sister, aunt etc.) if there is no danger of lustful feelings between either of them. (Summarized from: Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 3, pp. 444, 445)
To look towards the stomach, back, thighs and knees of the Maharim is Haraam. (Ibid, pp. 445)
(This ruling applies when there is not any cloth on these parts of body. However, if they are covered with a thick cloth, then there is no harm in looking at them.)
One may also touch the parts of the Maharim body, which he is allowed to look at, on condition that there is no risk of lustful feelings arousing from it for each.
(Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 3, pp. 445)
A man may press the feet of his mother, but he can only press her thighs, if they are covered, i.e. he may do so on her clothes. However, it is impermissible for him to touch her thighs when they are not fully and properly covered.
(Summarized from: Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 3, pp. 445)
