Question:

   If two brothers live in the same house, do their wives have to 
observe hijab in front of their husband's brother (i.e their 
brother-in-law)? Doing so would mean they have to have hijab on for most 
of the day.

Answer:

   The brother of the husband is not Mahram, and so they must observe Hijab,
even if they have to wear it all the time.

Wasalaam

Mustafa Jaffer
