Did you know.....?

[Selamat]

I started this thread so that people could post little known facts about Islam, fiqh, etc.

Sooooo.. Did you know....that if two people who aren't blood related are suckled by the same woman, they can't marry?

Narrated Abdullah bin Abu Mulaika from Uqba bin Al-Harith
(Radhiallaho anhuma):
Uqba married the daughter of Abu Ihab bin Aziz, and then a
woman came and said, "I suckled Uqba and his wife." Uqba said
to her, "I do not know that you have suckled me, and you did
not inform me." He then sent someone to the house of Abu Ihab
to enquire about that but they did not know that she had
suckled their daughter. Then Uqba went to the Prophet in
Medina and asked him about it. The Prophet
(sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said to him, "How (can you
keep your wife) after it has been said (that both of you were
suckled by the same woman)?" So, he divorced her and she was
married to another (husband).

right..you cannot marry the children of the woman who suckled/nursed you. her children are like your brothers and sisters.

more fiqh..

Bukhari Volume 2, Book 13, Number 4:

Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said, "The taking of a bath on Friday is compulsory for every male (Muslim) who has attained the age of puberty."

did you know that the child must have been suckled five fulfilling times for the previous law to apply?

ie for the child to become a mihrim to the children and the mother to be his mother bilrida3ah she has to have breast fed him five separated fulfilling times?


OK just checked fikh alsunnah there's a diff of opinion, some state that even once and some state three breastfeeds.



This honorable Ayah is the Ayah that establishes the degrees of women relatives who are never eligible for one to marry, because of blood relations, relations established by suckling or marriage. Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "(Allah said) I have prohibited for you seven types of relatives by blood and seven by marriage.'' Ibn `Abbas then recited the Ayah,




(Forbidden to you (for marriage) are: your mothers, your daughters, your sisters...) At-Tabari recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "Seven degrees of blood relation and seven degrees of marriage relation are prohibited (for marriage).'' He then recited the Ayah,




(Forbidden to you (for marriage) are: your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your father's sisters, your mother's sisters, your brother's daughters, your sister's daughters) and these are the types prohibited by blood relation.'' Allah's statement,




(Your foster mothers who suckled you, your foster milk suckling sisters) means, just as your mother who bore you is prohibited for you in marriage, so is your mother from suckling prohibited for you. Al-Bukhari and Muslim recorded that `A'ishah, the Mother of the Faithful, said that the Messenger of Allah said,




(Suckling prohibits what birth prohibits.) In another narration reported by Muslim,




(Suckling establishes prohibited degrees just as blood does.)

Less than five incidents of suckling will not establish prohibition for marriage. In his Sahih, Muslim recorded that `A'ishah said, "Among the parts of the Qur'an that were revealed, is the statement, `Ten incidents of suckling establishes the prohibition (concerning marriage).' It was later abrogated with five, and the Messenger of Allah died while this statement was still recited as part of the Qur'an.''' A Hadith that Sahlah bint Suhayl narrated states that the Messenger of Allah ordered her to suckle Salim the freed slave of Abu Hudhayfah with five.'' We should assert that the suckling mentioned here must occur before the age of two, as we stated when we explained the Ayah in Surat Al-Baqarah,




((The mothers) should suckle their children for two whole years, (that is) for those (parents) who desire to complete the term of suckling) ﴿2:233﴾. The Mother-in-Law and Stepdaughter are Prohibited in Marriage Allah said next,




(Your wives' mothers, your stepdaughters under your guardianship, born of your wives unto whom you have gone in - but there is no sin on you if you have not gone in unto them,) As for the mother of the wife, she becomes prohibited for marriage for her son-in-law when the marriage is conducted, whether the son-in-law has sexual relations with her daughter or not. As for the wife's daughter, she becomes prohibited for her stepfather when he has sexual relations with her mother, after the marriage contract is ratified. If the man divorces the mother before having sexual relations with her, he is allowed to marry her daughter. So Allah said;




(Your stepdaughters under your guardianship, born of your wives unto whom you have gone in -- but there is no sin on you if you have not gone in unto them,) to marry the stepdaughter.
