Nikaah & Marriage IssuesThose women with whom nikaah is permissible

Question

I have a step brother from my father's second wife and he has a daughter same age as me. Am I allowed to marry her? Her mother (my step brother's wife) is my uncle's wife's sister.

Answer

If he is from your father then it will not be permissible, and if he is not from your father then it is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
