THE FIQH DEPARTMENT

In the Name of Allah, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful.
Although every Fiqh opinion is based on evidence, often times, the scholars differ in their views. This room for differences is a mercy from Allah, and as long as there is evidence to support an opinion, then we must respect scholars' views, even if we may not always agree.
The Prophet (SAW) said:
"Whoever performs Ijtihad and errs will receive one reward. Whoever performs Ijtihad and arrives at the correct answer gets double the reward"
(Bukhari)

Fiqh: Islamic Jurisprudence - Marriage
Written by Ibn Taymiyyah   
He was asked about a man who enters upon his brother’s wife, and his uncles’ daughters (i.e. his female cousins). Is this permissible for him, or not?

He answered:
It is not permissible for him to be secluded with them. However, if he enters with someone else, and there is neither any seclusion or doubts, then this is permitted for him.

And Allah Knows Best.
