The children of your father through breastfeeding from his second wife who did notbreastfeed you are siblings to you

I was breastfed by a woman, then her husband married a second wife,
who produced children. Are they siblings to me?.
Praise be to Allaah.
If the breastfeeding consisted of five or morefeedings and the milk
was attributed to the husband because she (the woman who breastfed
you) had had a child from him, then they are regarded as siblings to
you through your father and mother through breastfeeding. As for his
children from his second wife, they aresiblings to you through your
father through breastfeeding.
What is meant by breastfeeding is when the child latches onto the
nipple and suckles milk until it reaches his stomach, then he let go
of the nipples for any reason, then he latches on again and suckles
thenipple until the milk reaches his stomach, then he stops
breastfeeding, then he breastfeeds again and soon, until he has
breastfed five or more times, whether that was in one sitting or more,
and whether that occurred on one day or more, on condition that that
took place when the child was still in the first two years of life,
because the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
"There is no breastfeeding (the makes a child a mahram)except in the
first two years." And he (blessingsand peace of Allah be upon him)
said to Sahlahbint Suhayl: "Breastfeed Saalim five times and he will
become your mahram."
And it is proven in Saheeh Muslim and Jaami' at-Tirmidhi that
'Aa'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Among the things that
were revealed of the Qur'aan was that ten definite breastfeedings make
the child a mahram, then that was abrogated and replaced with five
definite breastfeedings, and the Messenger of Allaah (blessings and
peace of Allah be upon him) passed away when this was the case. This
version was narrated by at-Tirmidhi.
May Allah help us all to do that which pleases Him. End quote.
Majmoo' Fataawa Ibn Baaz, 22/307
