Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner says: That she is veiled in Islamic dress, but out of necessity she reveals her face before her husband's two brothers who are with us in the house, knowing that this is not permissible, and I reside in a room inside the house and it is difficult for me to cover my face all the time, so advise me, O honorable Shaykh, what should I do? May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : We advise you to cover your face from your husband's two brothers, because revealing your face before your husband's brothers is a fitnah (trial/temptation), and the fitnah that may arise from your husband's brothers residing with you in the house may be more severe than the fitnah that occurs with foreign men. The questioner's statement that she cannot keep her face covered for the entire duration is an exaggeration, because a woman is not with her husband's brothers for the entire duration; perhaps she does not sit with them except for an hour of the day. So let her be patient in covering her face before them, let her seek reward from Allah, and let her restrain herself if she is inclined to reveal it.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
