# 4501- Love Not Lost
Question
Dear Rabbi. Is it permitted for a special commando soldier (my brother) whose wife is a niddah to hug her goodbye before leaving to fight in a special mission the accursed suicidal terrorists, since he is truly afraid he may not see her ever again?
Answer
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that he should write a beautiful and emotional letter instead, that will be kept for the future, reflecting far more his true feelings of love and care.
