Question:
A young man wants to marry a girl. This young man, uh, and, um, some describe the questioner as a young man who wants to marry a girl. The girl has a brother who is one year older than her, and the girl’s mother breastfed this young man once in one day along with her son who is older than the girl. So, is the marriage between them valid?
Answer:
One breastfeeding instance does not make it unlawful. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “One breastfeeding instance does not make it unlawful.” It is necessary to have five breastfeeding instances over two days. If the breastfeeding was less than that, they are not prohibited from marrying each other, and they do not need to seek a ruling permitting it. Yes.
