Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a man has two wives. One breastfed a boy three times, and the other breastfed him three times. Is this a breastfeeding that creates a prohibition? And what are the consequences of it?
Answer:
It creates a prohibition with regard to the husband, because the threshold was completed in his case. It does not create a prohibition with regard to the wives, because each one did not breastfeed him the complete amount of five breastfeedings. However, for the husband, these three plus the two from the other wife make five in his case. So he becomes the father of this infant through breastfeeding. As for the women, motherhood is not established for them because the threshold was not met. Yes.
