A woman asking her sisters to breastfeed her daughter but the husband refusing

Q: A sister died leaving behind a daughter in her first month of age. While breathing her last breath, she asked her two sisters to breastfeed her daughter until the period of suckling ends. However, her husband prevented the sisters from breastfeeding his daughter. He took his daughter to another woman to breastfeed her and refused to let her aunts breastfeed her. Is there any sin on the aunts' part or not? May Allah reward you with the best!


A: There is no blame on the aunts for not suckling their sister's daughter, since the child's father refused. (Part No. 21; Page No. 20) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
