He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: A woman nursed her child at night and fell asleep while he was nursing from her, and then morning came and the child was dead. What is required of her?
Answer:
She owes an expiation because this happened due to her. She left the breast in his mouth and he choked and died, so she is the cause of his death. Therefore, she owes an expiation: she must fast two consecutive months. Yes.
