I wan...As salaamu alaaykum Rahmatuallah wa Baraktu. I wanted to first commend the M2M for your blog and other media that u are managing to get the truth about this wonderful deen to the people MashaAllah may Allah continue to u guide you with knowledge and wisdom inshaAllah. I basically wanted to add to the question that Sis Tahirah ask about the brother in-law. First I wanted to give the surah and ayat that explains who is allowed to see the Muslimah without hijab and u explained it but didn't not put the surah and ayat for maybe others to refer to inshaAllah.. And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like palms of hands or one eye or both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron, etc.), and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons, their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful. ~An- Nur:31 And then I wanted to explain the seriousness of the brother in-law (or sister in law for males) as our Beloved Prophet (saas) said narrated by 'Uqba b. Amir: Beware of getting, into the houses and meeting women (in seclusion). A person from the Ansir said: Allah's Messenger, what about husband's brother, whereupon he said: Husband's brother is like death. Muslim Book 026, chp 8 Number 5400. Now I'm not saying u must treat them badly. We must still be respectful and cordial but we have to still uphold the same rules for our non mahram men (strange men) even if u know them. So as far as smiling, beautifying our voices, being extra etc. that is prohibited around them even if he is ur husbands brother. Just as the authentic hadith said they are death.(i.e. Fitnah if done incorrectly). I don't mean to rant or sound harsh. If i made a mistake please feel free to correct me and forgive for any short comings. Any benefit that u get from this is from Allah alone.
