Woman making purdah from her sister in law who has inclinations to females

Q: My brothers wife says she has an inclination to females which she often has to fight... A couple of times she got caught in shaitaans trap. How should purdah be observed in front of her? Should my face be covered as well?

A: You do not have to cover your face before her. However, you should exercise a degree of precaution when dealing with her. You should keep a safe distance from her.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
