Answer
The father-in-law is a Mahram (prohibited in marriage) to his daughter-in-law.
In principle, she does not have to observe Hijaab (Purdah) between her and her father-in-law. However, if they both are young, they should display modesty between them especially in these times of corruption and immorality when incest, rape, etc. are common.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
