Dutifulness to Parents Applying to a Mother through Breastfeeding

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah forgive you. This person asks: Does dutifulness to parents apply to a mother through breastfeeding?

Answer:
No. Dutifulness does not apply to a mother through breastfeeding, a sister through breastfeeding, or an aunt through breastfeeding, because they are not among those with kinship ties. What is established through breastfeeding is only the prohibition of marriage (mahramiyyah); they become mahram to him. Yes. Looking is permissible; it is permissible to look at a sister through breastfeeding or a mother through breastfeeding, and they are mahram. But as for maintaining family ties, no.
