Q: The wife of my paternal uncle breast-fed her half-sister. (Part No. 21; Page No. 86) Is it permissible for me to marry her half-sister? My mother did not breast-feed any of the half-sisters of my paternal uncle's wife and there had been no breastfeeding relationships between us. Does this breastfeeding affect my marriage to the half-sister of my paternal uncle's wife? In what way does my paternal uncle's wife become related to her half-sisters? May Allah benefit us and you. May Allah make you a source of guidance to others. My marriage is contingent on your reply, which I am impatiently waiting for. Accept my best regards!


A: If the reality is as you mentioned, it is permissible for you to marry the half-sister of your paternal uncle's wife, who is considered the daughter of your paternal uncle by means of breastfeeding. Your marriage to the half-sister of your paternal uncle's wife would not be affected by the fact that the latter breast-fed the former.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
