Question:
He says: I have two sisters through breastfeeding whom I have not been able to visit for twelve years. Now Allah has granted me success in visiting them, and I have asked their forgiveness. Is there anything required of me?
Answer:
If you were excused during your absence from them, then you owe nothing. If you were not excused and were merely being lax, you should seek forgiveness, repent, and ask for their pardon.
