Is it permissible to marry the daughter of the mother's paternal aunt who is not a full sister to the mother's father?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to marry the daughter of one's mother's paternal aunt, as long as there is no milk-kinship that prohibits it. It is also permissible to marry the direct paternal aunt's daughter (full-sister, half-sister through the father, or half-sister through the mother) as long as there is no milk-kinship that prohibits it. The proof of permissibility is Allah's saying: "And the daughters of your paternal uncles and the daughters of your paternal aunts, and the daughters of your maternal uncles and the daughters of your maternal aunts."
