The husband’s sisters and the wife’s sisters with respect to a child whom the wife breastfed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if my wife breastfeeds a child, will my sisters be his aunts? Yes, if my wife breastfeeds a child, will my sisters be his aunts?

The Shaykh:
What is it?

The questioner:
If my wife breastfeeds a child, will my sisters be his aunts and my wife’s sisters be his maternal aunts?

The Shaykh:
It is even stronger, just as they are aunts and maternal aunts by blood, so they are aunts and maternal aunts by breastfeeding. Take this Prophetic rule: what is forbidden by breastfeeding is forbidden by blood.
