Getting aroused when touching youngsters
Question
Unwilling Arousal - I have a few affectionate youngers at my hostel. I love them solely for the cause of deen. But, when I touch them, I feel sexually aroused! By Allah! I never even dreamt of getting aroused when I touch them. They are old enough with beards and don't have any female features which cause attraction. I feel guilty please tell me what to do.
Answer
Don't touch them.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
