Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace and Allah's mercy and blessings.

The questioner : This is a man who was breastfed by a woman who had daughters.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : A man was breastfed by a woman who had daughters, then her husband divorced her and another man married her and she bore daughters as well; are they mahram (forbidden relatives) to this man, like the daughters of the first husband?

The Shaykh : I mean, are the daughters of his wife through breastfeeding mahram (forbidden relatives) to him?

The questioner : This is a man who got married.

The Shaykh : I understood that you are asking whether the second husband becomes a mahram (forbidden relative) to the woman who breastfed him, in the context of the first husband's marriage?

The questioner : Yes, I do.

The Shaykh : No, the correct view is that he does not become a mahram (forbidden relative). Yes, if her daughters are by blood, I say: if her daughters are by blood, then they are indeed mahram (forbidden relatives).
