The stepmother exposing herself before the son and the mother of the second wife
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Pray for us. Is it permissible for my son from my first wife to see the mother of my second wife?
The Shaykh:
No. If you have two wives and you have a male child from one of them, meaning you have a son from one of them, then your second wife may expose herself to him because she is his father’s wife, if that is the question. If it is not the question, it is repeated.
The questioner:
May Allah be with you. Is it permissible for a son from my first wife to see the mother of my second wife?
The Shaykh:
His mother? No. Only your second wife may expose herself to him because she is his father’s wife. As for his mother, she does not expose herself to your son; rather, she exposes herself to you.
