The Permissibility of Women Uncovering Their Faces Before Their Husband’s and Wife’s Paternal and Maternal Uncles

The questioner:
A questioner says: My paternal uncle and maternal uncle, as well as my wife’s paternal and maternal uncles, and my mother’s paternal uncle, is it permissible for my daughters to uncover their faces before them and greet them?

The Shaykh:
As for your paternal uncle, as for your paternal uncle, he is a non-mahram to your wife, and your maternal uncle is a non-mahram to your wife, so they do not uncover their faces before them. As for her maternal uncle and her paternal uncle, they are among her mahrams, and among the mahrams of her daughters. So her maternal uncle is the maternal uncle of her daughter, and her paternal uncle is the paternal uncle of her daughter, so they are among her mahrams.

The questioner:
Abu means, may you live long, his paternal uncle and maternal uncle. His paternal uncle.

The Shaykh:
And her maternal uncle is on the side of the husband.

The questioner:
And regarding her daughters?

The Shaykh:
They are non-mahrams to the wife, but as for her daughters, they are their paternal uncles.

The questioner:
Yes, may Allah reward you.

The Shaykh:
Your paternal uncle is the paternal uncle of your daughter, and your maternal uncle is the maternal uncle of your daughter, yes.
