Is sucking the breast of wife permissible before child birth? because this is the time when milk will not produce.

Kya Bresefeeding Child birth se pehle jayaz hai because this is the time when milk will not produce.

Answer

(Fatwa: 294/L)

It is permissible, but after childbirth when the possibility of producing milk is greater one should avoid it lest the milk should not go inside the throat:

وھو تحقیق وجیہ لانہ یجوز لہ ان یلمس بجمیع بدنہ حتی بذکرہ جمیع بدنھا الا ماتحت الازار فکذا ھی لھا (الحائضة) ان تلمس بجمیع  بدنہ حتی ذکرہ الخ (الشامي، باب الحیض، ج 1، ص 487)
