Extension of milk kinship to the children of the mother from another husband
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
There is a woman who married a man and bore children from him. She also breastfed a girl who was not her own daughter. The husband passed away, and she married another man and bore children from the second husband. Is the first breastfed girl considered a sister to the brothers from the second husband?
Yes, and they are siblings through the mother, because their mother is one.And we add to this answer: If this husband has another wife, would the girl who was breastfed by the wife be a sister to the children of the other wife?This is a man who has two wives: One is Zaynab and the other is Fatimah. If she breastfed a daughter of Zaynab, would this daughter be a sister to the children of Fatimah? They would be siblings through the father. In the matter you asked about, they would be siblings through the mother. The children of the wet nurse from her husband would be siblings to the one breastfed by her through both the mother and the father. For breastfeeding is exactly like lineage, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (What is prohibited by breastfeeding is prohibited by lineage) And on this basis, siblings may be siblings through the father only, or through the mother only, or through both the mother and the father.
