Question:
My older brother was breastfed by one of the women, and she has a daughter who was breastfed along with my brother. Is it permissible for me to marry one of her daughters, or the daughters of her older or younger sisters? Please note that my brother is more than ten years older than me.
Answer:
It is upon your brother, and since you were not breastfed by this woman, there is no barrier to your marrying her daughters, even if they are your brother’s sisters through breastfeeding, because the ruling applies only to the fourth degree of kinship, whereas the siblings of the fourth degree are not subject to the ruling. Accordingly, you may marry the daughters of your brother’s wet nurse, as long as you yourself were not breastfed by her. May Allah reward you with good.
