Staying with Sister and Brother in Law

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askmufti.co.za

Q: I am visiting my younger sister in UK, and staying in her house for 2 months. She has had a baby and asked me to come over for domestic help. I wear a jilbaab and hijaab (cloak and veil). Is it obligatory for me to observe pardah in front of my brother in law? If yes, to what extent should I cover myself?

A: Full pardah should be adopted in his presence. It is best that you cover fully when he in front of him.
