Ruling on Living with One’s Brother and His Wife

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a questioner for the program who sent a set of questions. Your brother (H. S. N.) says: O His Eminence the Shaykh, a young man lives with his married brother in one house, and the house belongs to their father. The brother’s wife performs all the household chores, and the mother also lives with them. Is it permissible for him to live with them in this house, or not?

Answer:
Yes, he lives with them, but he does not seclude himself with his brother’s wife; he does not seclude himself with her. However, he lives with them, but he keeps away from seclusion with his brother’s wife, because she is not a mahram (a relative one may not marry) for him. Yes.
