A man sitting and talking with his aunt who is in her Hidad

Q 3: My paternal uncle, who is my father-in-law, died recently and my aunt started Hidad (mourning prescribed period during which a widow does not adorn herself and keeps to her passed away husband's home); is it permissible for me to sit and talk with her? Provide me with your beneficial answer please. May Allah reward you.

A: If you mean by saying "my aunt" your mother-in-law, it will be permissible for her to sit and talk with you because you are a Mahram (unmarriageable relative) to her. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
