A man divorced a woman, and her father through breastfeeding married her
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 15889 )
Q2: A man married a woman who was the ex-wife of another man. The man who divorced her had previously breastfed from the wife of the man who has now married her. What is the ruling, and is there a difference if the one who divorced her was his son? Please inform us with complete clarity. May Allah reward you with good.
A2: If a person breastfed from a man’s wife five times or more within the two-year period, it is not permissible for that man to marry the ex-wife of the one who breastfed; because she is the wife of his son through breastfeeding. Just as he does not marry the ex-wife of his son through lineage, due to the saying of the Exalted, when He mentioned the prohibited women: , likewise, it is not permissible for him to marry the ex-wife of his son through breastfeeding; due to the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): Sunan Ibn Majah 1937Sahih (Darussalam) . However, if the breastfeedings were fewer than five, or if there is doubt about them, then she is not prohibited for him; because the certain barrier does not exist.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.

and the wives of your sons
وَحَلائِلُ أَبْنَائِكُمُBreast-feeding makes unlawful (for marriages) the same things that blood tie make unlawful.
يحرم من الرضاع ما يحرم من النسبAnd success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.
