Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this brother who is asking says: What is the criterion for prohibitive breastfeeding? And if, Honorable Shaykh, a man breastfed from a relative of his, would her children become his brothers?
Answer:
Breastfeeding is prohibitive.[An-Nisa 4:23]. This is based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): .
So breastfeeding is prohibitive under certain conditions. First, it must be within the two years, meaning before weaning. The first condition is that it be before weaning. The second condition is that it be five breastfeedings or more. Five sucks, where each time he sucks, milk comes down for him. If five sucks are completed, then the threshold for prohibitive breastfeeding is met. If it is less than that, it has no effect.
Yes, and the woman who breastfed a child becomes his mother, and her children become brothers to this breastfed child through breastfeeding. Also, the children of her husband become his brothers through breastfeeding.
