The ruling on marriage between the sons of a man and the daughters of his ex-wife from another man
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Another question states: A man married a woman and divorced her after consummating the marriage because they did not have children. She then married another man, and he married another woman, and each of them had children. Is it permissible in the Shari'ah for his son to marry the daughter of his former wife whom he divorced, who did not bear children, or the reverse? Please answer us, may Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with it. The fact that his children are from the new wife, meaning his sons marry the daughters of the wife—his father's former wife—from her last husband, there is nothing wrong with that. This does not cause harm. However, he must not take anything from her daughters; because they are stepdaughters. The husband who divorced her is not permitted to marry her daughters; because they are stepdaughters, even if they are from the last husband, or from a previous husband. As for his sons, there is nothing wrong with it, provided there is no breastfeeding that would prohibit it, then there is nothing wrong with marrying the daughters of his father's wife. Yes.
