Benefit: A Boy Asks a Complex Question About Breastfeeding and the Relationships That Result From It
In the Name of Allāh, the Ever Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy
Ustādh Mūsá Richardson answers a question from a boy who enquires about a wet-nurse who may be maḥram to her child or not, the knowledge of this being relayed on her deathbed without full clarity. He wished to know what happens in such a complex situation. Another example of why it is unwise to tell boys and girls "don't ask about these things" when they are capable of comprehending the reality of situations. In broader society they are being taught or exposed to vulgar interpretations of intimacy and sexuality and incorrect understandings of rights and relationships.

Add a comment
The People of Sunnah fear Allāh the most as they are the most acquainted with their Lord. We have heard numerous examples of the fear which the Companions had of Allāh. Ibn Abī Mulaykah narrated that he met thirty of the Companions, all of them feared hypocrisy for themselves! Likewise, Ahl al-Sunnah are hopeful for the mercy of Allāh as they are the most well-acquainted with their Lord. The question then arises: How do we balance both hope and fear? Shaykh Aḥmad al-Najmī discusses.
