Is it permissible to marry a girl whose father was nursed by the mother of my sister?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Your marriage to the daughter of a man who was suckled by your mother is forbidden, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Suckling prohibits what lineage prohibits." However, if the man was suckled with your sister by a woman unrelated to you, then you are permitted to marry his daughters.
