Ruling on Uncovering the Face Before the Ex-Husband's Sons
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to uncover her face before the sons of her ex-husband from another woman?
Answer:
Yes, her husband's sons, yes; because she is a mahram (a relative one may not marry) to them, the wife of their father. So if he has sons from another wife, they are mahrams, yes.
The presenter: Even if she is divorced.
The Shaykh: Even if she is divorced, and even if he is dead.
The presenter: What Allah willed, may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh: Allah says: [Surat al-Nisa: 22] meaning: the wife of their father is a mahram to them.
The presenter: May Allah bless you, may Allah reward you with good.
