Breastfeeding a child who eats food
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A child is breastfeeding and eating at the same time. Is his breastfeeding forbidden?
Answer:
If he is able to eat food on his own and does not need milk, then he is not a mahram (a relative one may not marry). He is not a mahram. But if he does not get by on food and still needs milk, and he is within the two-year period before the two years are complete, then his eating of food does not count.
