The ruling on the second wife if a man is breastfed by the first
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
There is a man who has two wives, and a person was breastfed by one of them. Does the other become his mother through breastfeeding or not?
No.
The other one is not his mother through breastfeeding.
The questioner: What is the relationship?The Shaykh: He has a relationship, according to the opinion of the majority of scholars: she is the wife of his father through breastfeeding, and the wife of one’s father through breastfeeding is like the wife of one’s father through blood relation.
And Shaykh al-Islam (may Allah have mercy on him) holds a different view,He says: that breastfeeding does not affect cohabitation,By the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): (what is forbidden through breastfeeding is forbidden through blood relation) and the father’s wife is forbidden to the son on the side of cohabitation, so the second wife is a matter of disagreement regarding the breastfed child.
