Muslim men cannot marry women who belong to one of the following categories: The father's wife, whether divorced or widowed (this prevents any sexual attraction between the son and his stepmother, who should develop a relationship of respect and honor between themselves), the mother (including grandmothers on both sides), the daughter (including granddaughters from the son or the daughter), the sister (including half- and stepsisters), the paternal aunt (whether she is the father's real, half-, or stepsister), the maternal aunt (whether she is the father's real, half-, or stepsister), the brother's daughter (his niece), and the sister's daughter (his niece).
