Is it permissible for a man to marry his grandfather's daughter?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding the brother's question, it seems one person is taking his grandfather's daughter, and another is taking his maternal uncle's daughter. What is the ruling on the one who takes his grandfather's daughter?

The Shaykh : Does the one who takes his grandfather's daughter have to be her paternal uncle or maternal uncle, or not?

The questioner : Yes, exactly.

The Shaykh : And is it permissible for a person to take his brother's daughter or his sister's daughter?

The questioner : It is not permissible.

The Shaykh : It is not permissible.

The questioner : So, this is not permissible in this case, as the Shaykh said.

The Shaykh : Who?

The questioner : This one said, "You said, is it permissible for him to take this child, to take the girl? But because it is two obligations, the child must be from this one or from the other."

The Shaykh : I mean, their daughters.

The questioner : Daughters.

The Shaykh : I mean, their daughters.

The questioner : I mean, after the clarification, it turned out that one person is taking his grandfather's daughter, and another is taking... or is it...

The Shaykh : No, the one who takes his grandfather's daughter, it is known that it is not permissible.

The questioner : It is not permissible

The Shaykh : Because he is either her paternal uncle or her maternal uncle.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : If he is her grandfather on her father's side, he is her paternal uncle; and if he is her grandfather on her mother's side, he is her maternal uncle. How is that?

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, and as for the children of the daughter, the children of the daughter are the children of a maternal uncle's daughter, either the daughters of a maternal uncle or the daughters of a paternal uncle.

The questioner : So, it was not specified whether the child was from the second wife or the first.

The Shaykh : In any case, the rule with us is: whenever he becomes her paternal uncle or maternal uncle, it is not permissible for him to marry her.

The questioner : Okay, maybe a question.

The Shaykh : No, no.

The questioner : The follow-up, we are done with it.

The Shaykh : There, there, there, the brother spoke, and the brother, yes.
