Hijab from the children of one’s sister’s husband

Question

There is a (married) woman; her sister’s husband has died. Should she now not observe hijab from her step-nephews, that is, from the children of her sister’s husband who are from another wife?

Answer

She should observe hijab, because they are complete strangers (ajnabi); nikah with them is valid.
