Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that
Muhammadis His slave and Messenger.
First of all, we ask Allaah to facilitate your matter and make a way
out for you from your difficulty and facilitate for your
brother-in-law and his family a separate and independent
accommodation, as Allaah is Near and Responsive.
One aspect of wisdom of the Sharee'ah is that it blocks the means to
temptation especially in regard to the dealing of a man with a
non-Mahram woman.Usaamah Ibn Zaydnarrated that the Prophetsaid: "I
have not left behind me a temptation that is more harmful for men than
women." ]Al-Bukhaari and Muslim[
It is for this reason that Islam forbids being in seclusion with a
non-Mahram woman, and forbids a man from entering upon non-Mahram
women. The religious texts in this regard are mentioned in Fataawa
85321and 127911.
Indeed, you did well by observing your Hijaab in front of your
brothers-in-law as they are non-Mahram to you.
As regards what you mentioned in regard to the wife of your
brother-in-law not covering herself in front of your husband, then
this is evil and a clear sin and it is not permissible to approve of
them doing so. Therefore, you have to advise both of them in a wise
and gentle manner while highlighting to them the religious texts that
forbid that.
In any case, it is your right to be in a separate accommodation in
which you will not be harmed by the presence of your in-laws or
others. Indeed, it is the right of a wife upon her husband that he
provides her with a separate accommodation as clarified by the
jurists; for more benefit, please refer to Fatwa 84608.
In case it is necessary that your brother-in-law lives with you
]because of him not finding another accommodation[, then this must be
in part of the house whose amenities are completely separate from
yours.
Allaah Knows best.
