Is it permissible for a man who finds a foundling to have his wife breastfeed him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Your sister, is it permissible for a man, if he finds a foundling, to have his wife breastfeed him?
Answer: Yes, it is permissible for her to breastfeed him, and indeed it is obligatory if there is nothing else to take the place of breastfeeding him, because saving a protected life from destruction makes her his mother and her husband his father through breastfeeding.
