Breastfeeding of an adult by a female servant

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, today, regarding the people who are coming, if the female servant were to breastfeed, is it permissible for her to do so?

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible. Breastfeeding an adult is not lawful, and it does not establish the ruling of breastfeeding according to the majority of the scholars. You know that the story of Salim was a specific case with no general application, and it is not permissible to open this door.
