Is the wife's sister permanently or temporarily forbidden to the husband?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, the second to last question is about the husband's sister or the wife's sister, meaning for example, I married my wife and she has a sister. Is she forbidden to the husband, meaning is it a permanent prohibition or a temporary one?

The Shaykh : It is temporary.

The questioner : Eating, drinking, sitting together, and talking.

The Shaykh : It is temporary, but that does not mean that you treat her as a mahram (a relative one may not marry).

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : No, in the sense that it is not permissible for him to marry her.
