Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Abu Layla: My teacher, this question... I had arranged it and distributed it, meaning, in the format of this paper. Riyadh’s aunt is Wafa, and his uncle at the same time is Tawfiq. Naturally, his mother is the mother of Tawfiq and Wafa, and she becomes Riyadh’s grandmother by breastfeeding Riyadh, naturally with the sufficient number of breastfeedings. So Tawfiq has a daughter named Aliyah. What is Aliyah’s relationship to Riyadh, naturally? So Riyadh wants to marry her.

The Shaykh: The daughter is Tawfiq’s daughter, right?
Abu Layla: Yes, the daughter is Tawfiq’s daughter.

The Shaykh: And the grandmother is Riyadh’s grandmother, right?
Abu Layla: The grandmother is Riyadh’s grandmother.

The Shaykh: And what is the grandmother’s relationship to Tawfiq?
Abu Layla: She is his mother.

The Shaykh: Tawfiq’s mother.
Abu Layla: Tawfiq’s mother.

The Shaykh: It is not permissible for him to marry her.
Abu Layla: Because she would be his aunt?

The Shaykh: Yes.
Abu Layla : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : And beware of that.
