Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible for a woman to sit with her husband and his brothers, and if so, what are the obligatory conditions that must be followed in this?
The Shaykh : If the woman is covered with the Shari'ah-prescribed hijab, and her sitting is also in accordance with the Shari'ah etiquettes, such that, for example, she does not laugh or twist her body in front of her in-laws, her husband's brothers, then this is permissible. However, I believe that, especially in this time, it is extremely difficult to achieve such Islamic etiquettes in our society, which has awakened to Shari'ah violations and has not yet been able to distance itself from them. Therefore, the best of all is that such a gathering does not take place in the wife's home.
