Are my father's paternal cousins' daughters considered mahram (a relative one may not marry) to me?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Amen.

The Shaykh:
And you, amen.

The questioner:
Are the father's paternal cousins' daughters mahram to the son? And what about the sons and daughters? This is the first question.

The Shaykh:
What do you mean by "son," my brother?

The questioner:
I mean my father has paternal cousins' daughters, and are they mahram to me, meaning regarding being uncovered in front of them or something like that?

The Shaykh:
No, they are not mahram to you; they are non-mahram to you.

The questioner:
Non-mahram.

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
Even if we are old in age.

The Shaykh:
Even if they are old in age or young, are they non-mahram?
