Is it permissible for the son of a woman who breastfed a child to marry that child's sister?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no objection to a man marrying his suckling brother's sister, as long as she does not share a father, mother, or suckling with him; because Allah has only forbidden suckling sisters, and not the sisters of suckling brothers.
