Question
An adult teenager sexually molested his sister of 6 years. This continued for several years. The girl has now informed her parents. What is the brother-sister relationship now according to the Shariah?
Answer
All hijaab restrictions exist between this girl and the devil who happens to be her brother. She should not regard him as her brother. He has become a total stranger for her. This is not the first incident of this kind which has come to our notice. Such vile episodes of immorality are frequent occurrences between men and their daughters-in-law, men and their step-mothers, etc. It is therefore not surprising that the Fuqaha have ruled the need for a certain degree of hijaab to be observed for these categories of relatives. Stupid people wonder and scoff at such precautionary restrictions.
