Question:
One of them wants to marry the daughter of his brother’s ex-wife, who is over forty years old. His brother, his brother’s wife, and the woman’s mother refuse the marriage, saying that it is forbidden. What is the ruling on what they said?
Answer:
It is permissible for a man to marry his brother’s ex-wife’s daughter, provided there is no milk kinship. The daughter of his brother’s ex-wife is forbidden to his brother only because she is his foster daughter. As for the man himself, she is not forbidden to him, unless there is milk kinship, in which case it is forbidden; that is a different matter.
