Question

Is it permissible for a man to suck his wife’s breast and to drink her milk?

Answer


It is permissible for a man to enjoy the whole of his wife’s body even that which is mentioned in the question, and it is permissible to drink her milk.

However, contrary to what some wrongfully understand, the rulings of suckling [s. rulings pertaining to two marriageable people becoming unmarriageable to each other due to suckling] do not apply in this case, because those rulings only apply to children who haven’t yet reached two lunar years of age.

Amjad Rasheed

(Translated by Shazia Ahmad)

السؤال: هل يجوز للرجل مصُّ ثدي زوجته وشرب لبنها ؟

الجواب : يجوز للزوج الاستمتاع بجميع بدن زوجته حتى ما ذكر في السؤال ، ويجوز له شرب لبنها , ولا يثبت له شيء من أحكام الرضاع كما يتوهمه البعض ؛ لأنّ أحكام الرضاع لا تثبت إلا في صغير لم يبلغ العامين الهجريين .
