\n\tQuestion<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAs Salaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullah,<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIs there any way to make a stepfather’s brother into one’s mahram?<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThere’s a widow with a young daughter. She’s remarrying or thinking of it. She doesn’t want to ever tell her daughter that her new husband isn’t the daughter’s father, in case she feels inferior or different to other kids they may have in the future In <\/span><\/span>shaa<\/span><\/span> Allaah. So she’s trying to figure out how to make his brother the daughter’s mahram. The brother’s wife isn’t in the position to nurse.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWa Alaikum Assalam wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatuhu,<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe categories of Mahram have already been mentioned in the Quran. Allah has stated; Sura An Nisaa<\/span><\/span>, ayat<\/span><\/span> 23:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t“Prohibited to you [for marriage] are your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your father’s sisters, your mother’s sisters, your brother’s daughters, your sister’s daughters, your [milk] mothers who nursed you, your sisters through nursing, your wives’ mothers, and your step-daughters under your guardianship [born] of your wives unto whom you have gone in. But if you have not gone in unto them, there is no sin upon you. And [also prohibited are] the wives of your sons who are from your [own] loins, and that you take [in marriage] two sisters simultaneously, except for what has already occurred. Indeed, Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.”<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBesides the abovementioned groups, there are no other groups of persons who may be termed as Mahram except the spouses (husbands and wives). There will be no way of altering the law of Allah to make her stepfather’s brother in a mahram.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe best course of action is to show her additional kindness and love, then allow her to know the truth when she is mature enough. Children will eventually turn into adults inshaa Allah, and if you hide the truth from her or deceive her in any way concerning such an important matter, she will eventually find out and this may negatively impact her.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAll children have <\/span><\/span>the right<\/span><\/span> to know who their parents are and keeping the truth of her father’s identity from her would be considered as a form of oppression.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMay Allah guide you and me to always acknowledge the truth and accept it, even though it may be a bitter pill to swallow.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n
