Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks about a young man who wants to marry a girl. The girl has an older brother who is two years her senior. The girl’s mother breastfed this young man once on the same day as her son, who is older than the girl. Please advise us: is the marriage between them valid?
Answer:
One breastfeed does not prohibit marriage. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “One breastfeed does not prohibit.” It is necessary to have five breastfeedings within the two-year period. If the breastfeeding is less than that, it is established that prohibition does not occur. Yes. Yes.
