Is looking upon the mother and daughter of one's divorced wife permissible after the divorce?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Marriage
Primary text
Looking upon the mother and daughter of one's divorced wife is not permissible for the man, even though marriage to them has become forbidden. This is because their prohibition stems from a forbidden cause, which does not render looking upon them permissible, similar to a woman forbidden due to *li'an* (mutual imprecation).
