Question
One of my relatives has a small child who is one year and eight months old. She doesn't want to take other foods in her mouth yet. Much depends on breast milk. The question is, how long can she be breastfed? 7467413559
Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
The period of breastfeeding is two years from birth to the lunar month. Then it is not permissible to breastfeed the baby. This is proven and followed in the Qur'an, Hadith and the narrations of the Companions and the Tabi'is. Therefore, the child can be breastfed for up to two years. Then it will not be permissible. 8691124968
