Question:
May Allah bless you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: A woman has sons; is it permissible for her sons to be uncovered in front of her aunt, her father’s sister?
Answer:
Yes, her aunt, her mother’s aunt, is their aunt. If her mother’s aunt is her aunt by blood, her father’s sister, the aunt is the father’s sister. If she has an aunt, her father’s sister, and she has children, then her children are mahram (relatives one may not marry) to their aunt, because their mother’s aunt is their aunt. As for if the intended aunt is not by blood, because some people use the term aunt for the husband’s relative or such, if she is not by blood or by breastfeeding, then she is a non-mahram.
