Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This is a question regarding breastfeeding, in which the questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah prolong your life in obedience to Allah, please issue a ruling on this matter. The mother of four children breastfed one of her sons with one of her grandsons more than five times, as they live in the same house. A few days ago, the marriage contract was concluded between this grandson and one of his cousins’ daughters, but he has not yet consummated the marriage. Is this contract valid? And is the grandson considered a paternal uncle to his cousin’s daughter through breastfeeding?
Answer:
If he contracted marriage with the breastfed daughter of the breastfed grandson, then this is not permissible, because he would be her paternal uncle or her maternal uncle, so it is not permissible for him to contract marriage with her, because she was breastfed by his sister, is that not so? Yes, she was breastfed by his sister, so he is her maternal uncle.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
