The Ruling on Breastfeeding After Two Years

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, my son is two years old. A questioner says: My son is two years old, and I was unable to wean him. Is breastfeeding after two years lawful or forbidden?

Answer:
She should breastfeed him until he is nourished by food. Once he is nourished by food, she should wean him. However, as long as he is not nourished by food, she should continue to breastfeed him, even if it exceeds the two-year period, so that he does not suffer harm from the cessation of breastfeeding. Yes.
