Question: My husband has a daughter from another wife, and he has a son. Is the son of my husband's daughter considered a mahram (a relative one may not marry) to me, and is it therefore permissible for me to uncover him?
Answer: There is nothing wrong with that, because she is the wife of his father, the wife of his maternal grandfather,So what Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) said: [Surat al-Nisa: 22], so she is the wife of one of his fathers.

Question: A child grew up in his uncle's house and was breastfed by his uncle's wife. After a while, his uncle married a second woman and had daughters from her. Is it permissible for him to marry one of the daughters of the second woman, even though he was only breastfed by the first wife? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
Answer: No, he is not permitted to marry the daughters of the second wife, who is a co-wife (rival wife) to the one who breastfed him, and they are under one husband, because this is a matter of the milk of the male,And the correct view is: which is forbidden, and the daughters from the other woman are his sisters, from the father in terms of breastfeeding, and Allah knows best.
