More details to this question:
My aunt has power of attorney for my grandmother. She is currently in a nursing home that she doesn't want to be in. My other aunt said that she is willing to have her live at her home being as though none of my other aunts want her at their home. My aunt who is POA said no because my who wants my grandmother is Muslim and she doesn't think it's right. Is there anything my aunt can do to get her mother to live with her?

Outside of denouncing her Muslim faith, the option would be to hire an attorney and file to have either you or the Muslim aunt as guardian. If the non-Muslim aunt is not acting in the best interests of grandmother and it is medically possible for grandmother to live outside a nursing setting, then you may have a case.
