The marriage of a young man to his maternal uncle’s daughter, who was breastfed by him
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A young man was breastfed by his maternal uncle once. Is it permissible for him to marry this uncle’s daughter or not?
Answer:
This requires proof of the breastfeeding and clarification of the number of times he was breastfed. If it is established that he was breastfed five times within the two-year period, meaning five sucklings within the two years, then she is forbidden to him, because she is his sister. And if... If this is known, then it is not permissible for him. But if the number of times he was breastfed is not known, if the number of times he was breastfed is not known, it is established but he does not know the number to be five, then this is a doubtful matter, and he must avoid it in order to avoid doubtful matters. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
