'Ma Malakat Aymanukum' on Free Minds

[Riz]

I have a question regarding the Ma Malakat Aymanukum article on free-minds.org

It concludes
"Our understanding is that 'Ma Malakat Aymanukum' are widowed women who may be living under the roof and financial support of a man (her family, or the brother or relative of the deceased) and thus are described by the term 'what your OATHS posses' (i.e. due to the responsibility).

Marriage to such women is allowed in the Quran under slightly different terms & conditions than other women.
"

Perhaps I am not understanding this right, but doesn't that imply that marriage is allowed to a family member? !
If so, then I think this understanding is severely flawed.

Well, if the widow is living with her husband's brother or her husband's relatives, marriage between the widow and the relative may not be forbidden by the quran. For example, if a widow is living with her husband's brother, she may still marry him.
