Breastfeeding

Woman breastfeeding openly

4 days ago By user2

Q: I wanted advice on how to deal with a situation with my aunt (mothers sister). 

A lot of times she breastfeeds very openly (breasts fully uncovered) in front of my brother who is 14 years old. The other day I told her that if she needs to breastfeed then she should go into another room or at least throw on a blanket and she got angry at me and said that it’s comfortable for her and her baby to breastfeed the way she does. 

My mother found out about this and said that I should respect my aunt and that it was fine for her to breastfeed like that since my brother is her nephew. Am I in the wrong?

Breastfeeding while pregnant

Q: I have a one and a half year old daughter and my intention was to breastfeed her till she reaches the age of 2 as per the Islamic ruling.

However I have just found out that I am pregnant again, Alhamdulillah.

My question is: is it permissible for me to continue breastfeeding while pregnant, or is it advisable to stop asap?
