The answer

If a man suckles from his maternal aunt, he is permitted to marry her sister's daughter. However, if a man and his maternal aunt both suckle from another woman, he is permitted to marry the daughters of his maternal aunt's sister, provided that this woman is not the mother of the maternal aunt's sister, either by lineage or suckling, and her husband, who is the source of the milk, is not her father, either by lineage or suckling. But if the woman who suckled him is the mother of his maternal aunt's sister, either by lineage or suckling, or if her husband, who is the source of the milk, is the father of that sister, then he is not permitted to marry her daughters, because he would become their maternal uncle. It is a condition for the prohibition due to suckling that there be five sucklings. If there is only one suckling, it does not have an effect, and marriage is permissible.
