Is it permissible for the questioner to marry her cousin whose foster mother is her sister?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If your male cousin (your paternal aunt's son) is suckled by your sister five times or more during the suckling age, he becomes your sister's son. It is not permissible for a woman to marry her sister's son because she is his maternal aunt, and she is among the unmarriageable kin ().
