The answer

Denial of adult breastfeeding that does not establish mahramiyyah (prohibition of marriage) is not blameworthy, as it is the view of the majority of scholars. As for denying a out of ignorance, it is not considered a denial of what is known by necessity in the religion. Mocking an authentic hadith after knowing its authenticity is dangerous, and there is fear of apostasy for the one who does so. For someone who was ignorant of the hadith's authenticity, we hope that they have not fallen into apostasy.
