Islamically, he is your brother and hence a maHram and living together is perfectly alright as long as you you have separate rooms for privacy sake. those who raise their eyebrows are the ones who believe in "when a boy and a girl are alone, the third one is shaitaan between them’…it’s to some extent practiced in the West as well…here, if a couple has a son and a daughter over 12 years of age, they have to have a 3 bedroom dwelling as they expect the children to have their own rooms.

as far as people’s comments are concerend…you should know this…IGNORE them!

Even between brother & sister?

Re: Why ppl consider this an odd thing???

In the west it is an unwritten law that siblings hate each other, especially ones of different genders ... even if they are best of mates ... they will not normally make it known to others ... to be seen living with one's brother in the west - is like living under the one eye of "big brother" - the fallacy in the suffocation of being monitored and controlled. They don't realise that it is actually a sensible thing - especially financially.
