Ways of Proving the Mahramiiat through Fostering
Issue No. 2133- Suckling a child which becomes the cause of being maḥram can be established by the following two ways:1- A number of persons whose word is reliable say so.2- When two just men or four just women testify to it. Rather, the obligatory precaution is that, if one just man and one just woman testify, it will be sufficient. However, the witnesses should tell the conditions of suckling. For example, they should say that they had witnessed that a certain child was suckled fully by a certain woman for fifteen times with the conditions that were mentioned in Issue No. 2116. In case however, we know that they are aware of all those conditions and they agree with each other in this regard, then it will not be necessary for them to explain them.
