Your sisters by suckling are of two types:
1. If they suckled from your mother, or from another woman from whom both you and they suckled: Their sisters are not considered your maternal aunts, and they are not unlawful for you from this aspect. 2. If you suckled from their mother: Their maternal aunts are considered your maternal aunts by suckling and are unlawful for you.
