حُرِّمَتْ عَلَیْكُمْ اُمَّهٰتُكُمْ وَ بَنٰتُكُمْ وَ اَخَوٰتُكُمْ وَ عَمّٰتُكُمْ وَ خٰلٰتُكُمْ وَ بَنٰتُ الْاَخِ وَ بَنٰتُ الْاُخْتِ وَ اُمَّهٰتُكُمُ الّٰتِیْۤ اَرْضَعْنَكُمْ وَ اَخَوٰتُكُمْ مِّنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ وَ اُمَّهٰتُ نِسَآىٕكُمْ وَ رَبَآىٕبُكُمُ الّٰتِیْ فِیْ حُجُوْرِكُمْ مِّنْ نِّسَآىٕكُمُ الّٰتِیْ دَخَلْتُمْ بِهِنَّ٘-فَاِنْ لَّمْ تَكُوْنُوْا دَخَلْتُمْ بِهِنَّ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَیْكُمْ٘-وَ حَلَآىٕلُ اَبْنَآىٕكُمُ الَّذِیْنَ مِنْ اَصْلَابِكُمْۙ-وَ اَنْ تَجْمَعُوْا بَیْنَ الْاُخْتَیْنِ اِلَّا مَا قَدْ سَلَفَؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ غَفُوْرًا رَّحِیْمًاۙ (23)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

Forbidden for you ˹to marry˺ are your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your paternal aunts, your maternal aunts, your brother’s daughters, your sister’s daughters, your ˹milk˺ mothers who suckled you, your milk-sisters,[1] the mothers of your wives, the step-daughters in your care ˹born˺ of those ˹wives˺ with whom you have consummated marriage—if you have not consummated your marriage with them, there is no harm in marrying their daughters, the wives of your sons,[2] and two sisters together—except that which occurred in the past. Indeed, Allah is Most-Forgiving, Most-Merciful.

Commentary

This refers to relations of milk forged through nursing (suckling). It is unlawful to marry the woman who nursed an individual (as she becomes his milk-mother) and those who were nursed by the same woman are considered milk-brothers and milk-sisters so it is unlawful for them to marry one another, in fact in this bond of milk, maternal and paternal nephews, aunts, maternal uncles etc. are included too.
