Question:
Honorable Shaykh, there are conditions for breastfeeding. What is the ruling on statements like “I believe” or “I think” that I breastfed so-and-so? Are such statements taken into account?
Answer:
The conditions for breastfeeding are that it must be five sucklings, meaning five sucks or more. The second condition is that the breastfeeding must occur within the first two years. It must be within the first two years. An infant does not eat food; if he eats food, he is not breastfed but is weaned, and breastfeeding has no effect after he has started eating food. As for doubtful breastfeeding, it has no ruling. If there is doubt about the breastfeeding or its number, this doubtful breastfeeding has no effect until it is established and verified according to its conditions. Yes.
