Q: I heard that embracing one another on the occasion of the two Eids is not permissible in Islam. Does this apply to embracing the haajis on their arrival?
A: Embracing a haaji upon his arrival is permissible and in accordance to the sunnah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
ويودع أهله وإخوانه ويستحلهم ويطلب دعاءهم ويأتيهم لذلك وهم يأتونه إذا قدم (فتح القدير 2/407)
