Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A woman’s husband died, and she had small children. She then married, and this man was ... to her children. Is it prohibited for the children to call this man "father"?

The Shaykh : This is a matter of respect, but they must be made aware that he is not their father in reality.
