I breastfed someone else's baby one time. Are the rulings of fosterage
established after nursing only once? If so, what rightsmust I fulfill
for the baby, and what rights must she fulfill for me?The mother of
the baby is Hanafi, and I am Shafi''i. Does this matter?
Answer:
In the name of Allah MostMerciful Most Compassionate
I pray you are well and in the best of health and iman.
If the baby is younger than two lunar years old,then according to the
Hanafi school, this girl is your milk-daughter; in the Shafii school
she would need to have 5 separate feedings from the breast. For her
this would mean that your husband, his father, his brothers, his sons
and your father, your brothers and your sons are her mahram
relatives(non-marriageable kin). This is if the milk you have is from
a pregnancyfrom your husband, otherwise it would just be your
relatives that would be her mahram relatives.
The rights are that of anyMuslim on any Muslim.
And Allah alone gives success.
