Question:
May Allah reward you. A man married a woman, and she bore him a daughter. Then the mother passed away, and he married another woman. Then the daughter married and bore him children. Are the male children of the daughter mahram to the second wife?
Answer:
No, they are not mahram to the second wife. Rather, the first husband of the daughter’s children is mahram to them. He is mahram to them as their husband, because they are his stepchildren; the children of his wife’s daughter are his stepchildren. As for his own sons, no, they are strangers to these daughters.
