Breastfeeding more than five times

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Hello, please. Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : Peace be upon you.

The questioner : Shaykh, my grandmother breastfed a girl who was her age, meaning she was about two years old. They were in the desert, and we did not stop, meaning it was not due to famine or anything like that; rather, her mother would leave her with her and go out to graze the sheep. Is this breastfeeding permissible or not?

The Shaykh : How many times did she breastfeed? How many times did she breastfeed?

The questioner : I mean, she says for a period, meaning she took her for a period like this.

The Shaykh : How many times did she breastfeed?

The questioner : There is no specific number, meaning she does not say more than five.

The Shaykh : Tell me, tell me: once, or twice, or three, or four, or five, or six, or ten.

The questioner : Allah knows best, more, meaning she says she took her for a period in such a month or more.

The Shaykh : Specify it for me, may Allah reward you with good.

The questioner : May Allah be pleased with you, more than five.

The Shaykh : If it is her daughter.

The questioner : A daughter by Allah.
