Do the husband's sisters become محرمات to the children of their brother's divorced wife from a previous husband, and is it permissible for them to appear without hijab in front of them?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The children of the wife from a previous husband are not mahram (unmarriageable kin) to the sisters of the new husband, and it is not permissible for them to appear before them without a lawful hijab, because there is no kinship between them, and it is permissible for them to marry them.
