Husband's brothers staying at his house


398

Q: I am a married man and I am employee. My father's health and financial conditions force me to live in the same house with my parents and brothers. It should be noted (Part No. 19; Page No. 367) that I have two brothers; the younger brother is about 17 years old. Your Eminence, What is your view with regards to living with my father and brothers in the same house? I appreciate your advice. Peace, Mercy and Blessings of Allah be with you.


A: There is no harm in living in the same house with your brothers, provided that your wife wears decent clothes and veil in their presence. She should not have Khulwah (being alone with a member of the opposite sex) in the house with anyone of your brothers. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
