Q: A child drank milk from a woman. Later vomited it all out. Would it be haram for this boy to marry this womans daughter. The families are very close to each other. (I said no, but they said, the boy vomit it out. i said, there is a possibility that some stayed in the stomach.) They want a response from a mufti saheb. To complicate it shiek Usaymeen of saudi arabia in his fatwa kitab said so long as it is not beyond 5 sucklings it is ok, this maybe the hanabila view. The person asking is hanafee)
A: If the child had drunk the milk within the period of radhaa`at i.e. within two years from birth then this child becomes the foster son. Marriage will be totally impermissible. The law of foster relationship will apply even of the child vomited it all out.
