Is it permissible for me to marry a man whose son I breastfed?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is permissible to marry a man whose son was suckled [by the woman]; there is no state of mahramiyyah (prohibition of marriage due to kinship) between the woman and the man. Rather, the mahramiyyah exists between the woman and the son whom she suckled.
