Boy’s mother has fed milk to the girl when the girl was less than 2 year old. Girl is the daughter of maternal uncle of boy. Can the boy marry girl’s younger sister.
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Yes, it is permissible for the boy to marry the girl’s younger sister (ie his foster sister’s sister) as long as she did not breast feed from the boy’s mother. (Al-Hidaya, vol 2, pg 351,Shirkiyya / Fatawaa Rahimiyya, vol 8, pg 251, Dar Al-Isha’at)
ويجوز أن يتزوج الرجل بأخت أخيه من الرضاع لأنه يجوز أن يتزوج بأخت أخيه من النسب وذلك مثل الأخ من الأب إذا كانت له أخت من أمه جاز لأخيه من أبيه أن يتزوجها (الهداية,2351)
And Allah knows best
