There is no Effect From This Breast-feeding
Question :
A woman has married daughters and one of them gave birth to a boy who was breast-fed by his maternal grandmother, and the boy who was breast-fed by his grandmother has brothers. What is the effect of this breast- feeding on his brothers, and is it permissible for one of the suckled boy's brothers to marry one of his maternal aunts' daughters, those who did not breast-feed and were not breast-fed? I request a legal verdict on this and I ask Allah - Mighty is His Ability to strengthen and may Allah preserve you.
Answer:
If the situation is as you have described in the question: that one of the sons was breast-fed by his maternal grandmother, and his brothers were not breast-fed by her, it is permissible for his brothers to marry their maternal aunts' daughters. The fact that he was breast-fed by his grandmother does not effect the marriage of any of his brothers with any of the daughters of his maternal aunts.
May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet ﷺ, Muhammad and upon his family and Companions.
