This breast feeding has no effect

This breast feeding has no effect


Question :

My mother died when I was six months old. Then my grandmother took care of me, and she gave me cow's milk, and sometimes the breast in order to comfort me, but there was nothing in it. So is it permissible for me to marry one of my paternal uncles' or aunts' daughters?


Answer:

Since your grandmother was old at that time and she did not give you milk when she gave you the breast to suck, and it was only to comfort you and quiet you, it is permissible for you to marry any of the daughters of your paternal uncles, and there is no kinship which would forbid it, nor any confirmed breast-feeding which would affect it.
