Accepted Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and Messenger.

You are not considered a Mahram (non-Marriageable) to a woman just because she is the wife of your (paternal or maternal) uncle, unless there are other impediments that eternally prohibit from marrying them, like suckling and so on.

Allaah Knows best.
