Question

Does seeing a girl naked and touching her body (private parts) and kissing come in zina?

Answer

Yes, this is also one form of zina. The Hadith explains that the zina of the eyes is looking at haraam and the zina of the hands is touching haraam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
