If your paternal uncle's daughter was suckled by your father's milk, she is considered his daughter and a sister to all his children. However, if she was suckled with you by a foreign woman, she is a foreigner to him and a sister to whoever was suckled with her. The nursing mother is a mother in every case, and her children are siblings to those whom she suckled.
