Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The rulings concerning Mahrams by fosterage are the same as those concerning Mahrams by blood relation in terms of the prohibition of marriage, the display of adornment, seclusion, and travel. This is based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Indeed, fosterage prohibits what birth prohibits."
