Is it permissible for the father of a nursing infant to marry the daughter of the wet nurse?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible for a man to marry the daughter of the woman who breastfed his child, as long as there is no other proven suckling relationship between them. The fact that she is a suckling sister to his child does not make her unlawful for him.
