The answer

Maternity by lineage is established by birth, and it prohibits what is prohibited by lineage, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "What is prohibited by lineage is prohibited by fosterage." So, if the aforementioned girl nursed from your mother five full feedings or more, she becomes your foster sister.
