Drinking One's Wife's Milk



Question: While I was having intercourse with my breastfeeding wife, I drank her milk. Is her milk lawful to him?

Answer: Breastfeeding a grown-up has no effect, because the breastfeeding which has an effect is that which consists of five sucklings or more within the first two years, before weaning. On the basis of this, if it happened that someone breastfed from his wife or drank her milk, he does not become her son.
