Question

Is it permissible for a brother to cut off his sisters because their daughters do not wear the covering, knowing that they wear the jilbab?

Answer

I say, and with God's success: The jilbab is a legal hijab, and it is not permissible to cut off its sisters for such a reason, and God knows best.
