Activist clerics in Kuwait recently announced that breatfeeding a husband by his wife is not prohibited in Islam...
Islamic 'Adult Breastfeeding' Fatwas Return
Back in May 2007, Dr. Izzat Atiya, head of Al Azhar University's Department of Hadith, issued a fatwa, or Islamic legal decree, saying that female workers should "breastfeed" their male co-workers in order to work in each other's company. According to the BBC:
He said that if a woman fed a male colleague "directly from her breast" at least five times they would establish a family bond and thus be allowed to be alone together at work. "Breast feeding an adult puts an end to the problem of the private meeting, and does not ban marriage," he ruled. "A woman at work can take off the veil or reveal her hair in front of someone whom she breastfed."

Atiya based his fatwa on a hadith -- a documented saying or doing of Islam's prophet Muhammad and subsequently one of Sharia law's sources of jurisprudence. Many Egyptians naturally protested this decree--hadith or no hadith--though no one could really demonstrate how it was un-Islamic; for the fatwa conformed to the strictures of Islamic jurisprudence. Still, due to the protests--not many Egyptian women were eager to "breastfeed" their male coworkers--the fatwa receded, and that was that.
However, because it was never truly rebutted, it kept making comebacks.
For instance, three years later in 2010, a high-ranking Saudi, Sheikh Abdul Mohsin al-Abaican issued a fatwa confirming that "women could give their milk to men to establish a degree of maternal relations and get around a strict religious ban on mixing between unrelated men and women." But unlike Atiya's fatwa, "the man should take the milk, but not directly from the breast of the woman. He should drink it [from a cup] and then [he] becomes a relative of the family, a fact that allows him to come in contact with the women without breaking Islam's rules about mixing."
Now, a report titled "Kuwaiti Activists: Husband Breastfeeding from Wife not Prohibited," published earlier this month by Arabic RT (see also Garaa News) opens by announcing that "The adult breastfeeding fatwa has returned once again to the spotlight, after Kuwaiti Islamic activists supported the adult breastfeeding fatwa issued by the Egyptian Salafi, Sheikh Jamal al-Murakbi [different from Al Azhar's Sheikh Atiya]. This time around, the Kuwaitis examined the adult breastfeeding fatwa in the context of relations between a man and his wife."
While the Kuwaiti sheikhs all essentially agree that the activity is not strictly forbidden according to Sharia--only "disliked" (literallymakruh)--they are divided over the particulars.
- Sheikh Nazim Misbahi, head of the Fatwa Committee of the Islamic Heritage Revival Society in Kuwait, supports the decree, agreeing that "it is not forbidden [haram] for a man to breastfeed from his wife."
- Sheikh Bassam al-Shatti, a Sharia professor, specifies: "If the husband deliberately sucks to obtain milk from the breast of his wife, this is forbidden; however, if it happens unintentionally during foreplay with his wife, then there is no problem--though it is disliked according to the four schools" of Sharia.
- Sheikh Sa'd al-Anzi stressed that "if the man, while being intimate with his wife, sucks her nipples, it is nothing, considered foreplay; but if the milk reaches his mouth, he should spit out--even if goes down in his stomach," i.e., vomit.
Consider for a moment the significance of these Islamic edicts: whether women "breastfeeding" coworkers (Egyptian fatwa, 2007), whether men drinking female breast-milk in a cup (Saudi fatwa, 2010), or whether Kuwaiti minutiae concerning bedroom foreplay--such fatwas are reminders of the inescapable strictures of Sharia law: while these sheikhs offers various circumstances and interpretations concerning "adult breastfeeding," they are all confined to the words of the prophet of Islam.
This is precisely why, despite all the claims that Islam is perpetually being "misunderstood"--by terrorists, by "Islamophobes"--understanding what Islam commands and forbids is actually quite a simple matter: along with the Koran, determine what the prophet said in canonical hadiths.
It is, after all, no coincidence that the above mentioned Kuwaitis, like Sheikh Misbahi, were members of the delegation that recently went to ask Saudi Arabia's Grand Mufti about Islam's position on churches in the Arabian Peninsula: the same source that compelled the Grand Mufti to declare that all churches must be destroyed, is the same source that advocates "adult breastfeeding": Muhammad and his teachings. All very straightforward, really.

The picture of the man with his mouth open didn't influence me in any way. The quotes of Islamic scholars is what I look at. Are you calling these "deranged" scholars who make the laws liars?
I don't care if it is in the Koran or not. There is plenty of evidence that this type of unacceptable behavior is endorsed by Islam.
Your argument is nothing but opinion here. Until you can prove that you have enough credibility to speak of what is lawful or not in Islam, you're wasting your breath.
If you have problem with the people issuing these barbaric fatwas, perhaps it is them you should be talking to.

How does one become Sunni?
By following Sunnah and the law that arises from it Sharia.
You are a Quran only species of Muslims. You are outnumbered and will become extinct in no time.
If you are vocal about this is KSA then you might meet your maker even sooner.

Will the men be asked to say bismillah?
We need more clarification. Will men be given training to suckle? What if the women is too old to produce milk?

Back to my point, the Quran is the word of Allah and IT is the only authority and not some Sheik or Imam who decides some act needs to be Allowed. The behavior described about is not allowed according to the Quran and thus by Allahs own words is not part of Islam, rendering it a false staement.

But if muslims will implement it at home as well as work place then definitely
they will have more peace and less rape and adultery in society.
Best of luck and waiting for social data after few years !

All they have to do is say "Look, she didn't gave birth to him, so she's his mother but not his natural mother so, she's her grand-mother and we all permit us to marry our grand-mother!".

Jibril was never seen or heard by anyone except Muhammad. So did this specter even exist? The description of this apparition sounds demon-like.
As for the writings in the Qur'an as proven fact - please list some of these facts. The creation stuff is all wrong. Scientific fact! The Bible stories - also all wrong! The stuff about heaven and hell - unprovable, but highly unlikely!!! In fact, ROTFLOL ridiculous stuff!!!
What does that leave? Calls for warfare against - well, everyone!! And 1400 years of have provien that to be a fact!!
Islam is organized crime against humanity with a declaration of open-ended WAR against all unbelievers (9:5, 9:29)......
There is no fact concerning the Allah god, except that its only attribute is ANGER; however, mentioning this is haram, and, if you do, Allah will get angry!!

If you cannot prove that, try not telling falsehod.

Mohameddan, you are not very certain on that, are you?
Anyway, Quran, Koran, Qu'ran, Ko'ran, Kooraan or anything sounding like that just means the same.... unless you are saying Allah had informed Mohamedd that the Title on the Front Cover should be only Quran and nothing else.
Even the word "Allah" is read with an arabic tongue twist and not as what the roman alphabets actually say. With a pinch of salt, Kooraan is Quran and vice versa. So long as we know what the subject is. Like Mo' is Muhammad and Muzzies are camel-brained people of terrorists origin.

believe us ....when we say ....we will for as long as it takes to destroy Islam.
Please do not come here and defend the pathetic garbage that is IN the Quran and expect anyone in this day and age to actually believe in such filth.
Fine example of the filth in Quran, that Muslims have nothing to defend, against ..
promising, young and inexperienced virgins to Muslims in heaven, while most normal men hate and dredge the idea of dealing with the cries and the blood that young virgins usually display at their first time .... even when Muslim men like the idea their women are pure and untouched .... but still all men hate virgins but , yet , Quran promises them to men ...
what a pile of garbage that is ?! ....
This proves without the shadow of a doubt that Quran, did not come from any God ... in fact, it only proves Quran came from a sick demented man who he him self like to molested little girls ... that is why he promises, virgins to other men ...
not only that ... the virgins that are in heaven according to Islam, stay virgins for ever and ever after they get to be used ...their virginity, stay as it is ... in tact after each use ... hahaha ....
Uhhhhh .... the absurdity of Quran and Islam .... nothing surpass it .... and Muslims have the nerve to come here and defend it .... hahahaha

Without the hadith this portion of the verse is senseless: "the Sign of the Night have We obscured, while the Sign of the Day... " how did the Sign of the Night get "obscured" and what does it TALK about? For a "Kooran" only person very hard to explain. Of course according to the hadith, the Sign of the Night is supposedly the Moon, as it was created it was a "Sun" but since two Suns would make the Earth flooded all the time in "light" (and no darkness) stoned-gawd allah sent one Angel to the Moon to draw his Wing 3 times over it, plotting it out. The dark spots on it are supposedly signs of this "plotting". Hilarious! A Angel so big that his Wing would be almost as big as the Moon! At the Muslims here do yourself a favor and ask yourself this question: if a day is 1.000 years, and at another time your supposedly inerrant word of the stoned-gawd allah says it is a 50.000 years.... Besides your lice-ridden profeet claimed that the "day of doom" was only half a day away (at this time meaning of course one day being 1.000 years) so the "judgment day would have happen about 1160 (give or take a few decades since it is not so irrelevant) why did the "DAY OF DOOM" not happen some centuries ago?
BTW there seems some Muslims having no Problem lying to their fellow Muslims. I saw some "reports" that in AUSTRIA in the LAST TWO years 500.000 people converted to Islam. Well it did NOT happen, someone got the thing wrong. Since it is true that there are some estimates of Muslim the number is rather between 400.000 & 500.000 and not converts of the last TWO years BUT the growth since well before 2002. So what we have is Muslims having children and therein lies the "growth" BUT not in conversion in HUGE numbers.
I AM living in Vienna/Austria so I know it DOES NOT happen like Muslims are being told...

Muslim girls are taught from very young age to guard their hymen from being taken, they rather die and their family rather to have their daughters die then to lose it before the wedding.
After each Islamic wedding women from the groom side, sit around outside the door of the bride to wait to see the groom to produce the smudge of blood on sheets to prove to his family, his bride is pure so they can go home and relax.
the bride family wait also for the good news to save face and honer …Muslim bride usually are so nerves for the passing of this test … the wedding night becomes a nightmare and the most embarrassing thing they ever could do … it is humiliating … it meant to say to the brides '' we do not trust you when you say you are pure, we want to see the proofs ''.. so ridicules
Every once a while people hear of a groom who divorces his wife few days after the wedding … the family of the bride demand an announcement that the reason for the divorce was not a lost hymen but some other reason, otherwise the bride have to fear for her life from anger for letting go of her Muslim hymen .
Islamic absurdities …. What else can it be ?
