Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is it permissible for a woman to sit with her husband's paternal uncle and her husband's maternal uncle if her husband is with her, and she is wearing a hijab but is uncovered and showing her face?
Answer:
Yes, it is not permissible for her to uncover her face in front of her husband’s relatives, because they are strangers to her. She should sit while wearing her hijab. Why would she uncover it? She should sit while wearing her hijab and be separate as well. She should not sit next to a man who is not lawful for her or who is not one of her mahram (close relatives). She should sit away from the man, from the men, and be veiled. There is no harm in her speaking with them or listening to what they say; there is no harm in that. Yes.
