The ruling on one or two breastfeedings in terms of prohibition

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
But if, for example, a child is breastfed once or twice, is it not permissible for him to take from them, and do they not become prohibited to him?
Answer: No, there is no harm in taking from them. They do not become his siblings, nor do the daughters of the two women become his sisters, nor does the woman who breastfed him become his mother, nor does the husband become his father, if the breastfeeding was little, such as once or twice. It is not considered; five breastfeedings are required.
The presenter: And he may take from them, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh: There is no harm. And if he leaves this off out of caution regarding a doubtful matter, there is no harm. If he leaves this off out of caution, there is no objection. But they do not become prohibited to him except with five breastfeedings. Yes.
