The Ruling on Breastfeeding from the Grandmother and Its Effect on the Aunts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner says: In this issue of breastfeeding, my maternal grandmother breastfed me along with my younger maternal aunt, and I have an older maternal aunt who is married and has children. No, no, no.
Another questioner:
Am I considered an aunt to these people?
The Shaykh:
Yes. You are an aunt to all your grandmother’s daughters, both the older and younger ones. All the daughters of the woman who breastfed you are your sisters, and you are an aunt to their children. You are an aunt to her children. This must be known: the ruling is not restricted to the children who were breastfed with the person in question or those born after him. Some people understand that a child born before the breastfeeding took place does not become a sibling to the breastfed child, and this is a great error. All the children of the woman who breastfed, whether older or younger, are all siblings to the one who was breastfed by her.
