Question:
A message was received by the program from one of the listening brothers, saying: Ibrahim Ahmad Dhib from Yemen. Brother Ibrahim has a number of questions, one of which is: I have a nephew who was breastfed with me. Is it permissible for him to marry my other paternal aunts’ daughters, knowing that he was not breastfed with them, but only with me? We ask for your guidance. May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh: Repeat.
The presenter: He says: I have a nephew who was breastfed with me. Is it permissible for him to marry his other paternal aunts’ daughters, knowing that he was not breastfed with them, but only with me? We ask for your guidance. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
If he was breastfed by your mother five times, he becomes your brother, and the brother of all your siblings, provided it was before weaning. If he was breastfed within the two years before weaning, five times or more, by your mother, he becomes your brother, and the brother of all your brothers, both young and old. He also becomes the brother of all your father’s children from other wives, the uncle of your brothers’ children, the uncle of your brothers’ children, and the maternal uncle of your sisters’ children. He is not permitted to marry any of them. He is the maternal uncle of his sisters’ children through breastfeeding, and the uncle of his brothers’ children through breastfeeding. If those are from your mother, he is a full brother to them; if they are from another wife, he is their paternal half-brother. This is because your mother is the wife of the man who breastfed him from her milk, so he becomes his son, and the brother of his children from other wives through the father, and the brother of the children of the other wives through the father.
The point is that this child who was breastfed by your mother is your brother and the brother of all your siblings from your mother, a full brother, and from the other wives, he is their paternal half-brother. He is the paternal half-brother of the females, the maternal uncle of the females’ children, and the uncle of the males’ children.
