Conditions of Prohibitive Breastfeeding and the Requirement That the Milk Be from a Woman
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, the conditions for prohibition through breastfeeding are that it must occur within the first two years and that it must be five sucklings. Is it also required that the milk be from a woman?
The Shaykh:
That the breastfeeding is established, meaning there are three conditions, and that the breastfeeding is established by the testimony of a woman or a man. Yes.
The questioner:
Is it said that it is also required that the milk be from a woman? So if two people suckle from the milk of the same beast, would they become siblings through breastfeeding?
The Shaykh:
People would all become siblings through breastfeeding, because now they are drinking from the milk of Dutch cows; people would all become siblings through breastfeeding.
