What is the ruling on the wife's relatives through breastfeeding?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a man's wife has a wet nurse, what is the ruling on the sisters of the wet nurse to the husband of the one who was breastfed, in terms of marriage, such as the neighbor of the one who was breastfed?

Answer:
They are her aunts. One does not marry a woman and her paternal aunt together, nor a woman and her maternal aunt together, whether by blood or by breastfeeding. Therefore, he may not marry her sister through breastfeeding, nor her paternal aunt through breastfeeding, nor her maternal aunt through breastfeeding, just as in the case of blood relations.
