Is it true that if the eldest brother is breastfed by a woman, it prevents his younger brothers from marrying the daughters of this wet nurse?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The second paragraph asks: Is it true that if the eldest brother is breastfed by a woman and she becomes his mother through breastfeeding, does this prevent his remaining younger brothers from marrying the daughters of this woman, who is his mother?

The Shaykh : The answer to this paragraph is clear from what has come before, which is that the brothers of the one who was breastfed are not affected by the breastfeeding in any way. Therefore, it is permissible for his brothers, meaning the brothers of this one who was breastfed, to marry the daughters, meaning the daughters of the woman who breastfed him, whether they are older than him or younger than him, because they were not breastfed by this woman.
