Definition of the counted suckling in the breastfeeding that prohibits marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the counted suckling in the breastfeeding that prohibits marriage?

Answer:
The counted suckling is when the child sucks the breast, draws milk from it, and then releases it; that is one suckling. If he returns to it and sucks a second time, that is a second suckling, until he completes five sucklings. By this method, the child is satisfied, just as some people do. They think that satisfaction is the criterion, but no, the suckling is the act of drawing the milk, not the state of being full. Yes.
