Is it permissible for sisters to uncover their faces in front of a man who is not related to them by blood, and who sponsored them after the death of their parents, knowing that all of them are married and observe hijab?

If there is no prohibited degree of kinship between you and the man, whether by blood or by suckling, then it is not permissible for you to uncover any part of your bodies or your hair in front of him, as he is a stranger to you, and his sponsorship does not entail the ruling of a relationship.
