The ruling on a man who suckles his wife's breast after childbirth.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: What is the ruling on a man who suckles his wife's breasts after she gives birth? This is a question that people often fall into nowadays.

The Shaykh : Nothing results from it; because the milk that creates prohibition is, as came in some hadiths,
What grew the flesh and raised the bone ما أنبت اللحم وأنشز العظم
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 6:1003
. So when a man drinks from his wife's milk, it has no effect on him; it does not grow his flesh, strengthen his bones, or excite him. So it means nothing; there is no breastfeeding at this age whatsoever. And after that, there is no prohibition. It is only that some souls may feel disgust at such breastfeeding.
Yes.
