Is it permissible for my maternal uncle to marry my daughter?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is it permissible for Khalid to marry my daughter? Khalid?

Answer:
What does he say? He says: May Allah forgive you, is it permissible for Khalid to marry my daughter? It is not permissible for Khalid, meaning your mother’s brother, to marry your daughter, because he is her maternal uncle. Your maternal uncle is the maternal uncle of your daughter, your daughter’s daughter, and your daughter’s daughter’s daughter, no matter how far down the line we go, if the intention is that he is your mother’s brother, or your grandmother’s brother, or your grandmother’s grandmother’s brother. I mean, the brother of your mothers or grandmothers. So, it is not permissible for him to marry your daughters or your sons’ daughters, because he is their maternal uncle by blood or by breastfeeding.
