Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Our brother asks: Is it permissible for a man's father through breastfeeding to marry his son's wife after the son's death or divorce? May Allah reward you with good. Is it permissible for a man's father through breastfeeding to marry his son's wife after the son's death or divorce?
Answer:
This is not permissible. It is not permissible to marry one's son's wife through breastfeeding, just as it is not permissible to marry one's son's wife through blood relation. This is based on the saying of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He:[An-Nisa 4:23]. This applies to the son's wife through blood relation, and likewise to the son's wife through breastfeeding, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): Sahih Muslim 1445i Yes.

the wives of your sons who are from your [own] loins
وَحَلَائِلُ أَبْنَائِكُمُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ أَصْلَابِكُمْon account of fosterage as one is Mahram on account of consanguinity
يحرم من الرضاعة ما يحرم من النسب،
