Question:
From Yemen, the listener Salih Muhammad Hajjar sent a question saying: My mother breastfed my elder female cousin. Is it permissible for me to marry her other sisters? Please give us a ruling. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes, if your mother breastfed the elder girl five times or more within the first two years, she is forbidden to you and becomes your sister through breastfeeding. As for her sisters, there is nothing wrong with marrying them, because they were not breastfed by the mother. As for the breastfed child, she becomes forbidden if the breastfeeding occurred five times or more while she was within the first two years. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
