The Ruling on Marrying a Wife's Daughters From Another Man
Question :
A man married a woman and she bore him daughters, then he divorced her and another man married her and she bore him daughters also. Should the daughters of the second husband veil themselves from the first husband. And if they must veil themselves, is it permissible for him to marry from them?
Answer:
If a man marries a woman and has sexual intercourse with her, he is permanently forbidden from marrying her daughters or the daughters of her children and their descendants, whether they are from a previous or a subsequent husband, according to the Words of Allah, Most High:
"Forbidden to you (for marriage) are: your mothers."
-up to His Words:
"your stepdaughters under your guardianship, born of your wives unto whom you have gone in.
and the stepdaughters here are the daughters of the wife, and the husband is considered a Marham for the daughters of the woman he married and with whom he had sexual intercourse, so they do not have to veil themselves from him. And Allah is the Granter of success. And may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet, Muhammad and upon his family and Companions.
