Is it permissible for me to marry my paternal cousin, knowing that my paternal grandmother (my father's mother) breastfed me?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the questioner's grandmother breastfed him five times or more within the first two years of his life, he becomes a brother to his father and paternal uncles, and an uncle to his paternal uncles' daughters. Thus, marriage to them becomes forbidden for him.
