QUESTION:

I would like to know if children who come from separate parents altogether,
but are living together with new parents, are mahram to each other?


ANSWER:

Such children from separate parents are not mahram to each other.
References can be found in ISLAMIC LAWS (English Version) by Ayatullah
Seestani where Mahram and Na-Mahram are explained.
