Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the sisters is asking: regarding breastfeeding, what is the amount in terms of the number of times and the number of years?
Answer:
Breastfeeding for two years, as Allah the Exalted mentioned in His saying:[Al-Baqarah 2:233] Because during this period, the child does not do without breastfeeding, as he does not eat food. However, if he reaches the age of two years, he begins to eat food and nourish himself with it, so he is no longer in need of breastfeeding. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
