Question:

Does breastfeeding after the period of suckling establish prohibition or not?

Answer:

The prohibition of breastfeeding is only established by drinking milk during the period of suckling, and that too by drinking to satisfaction at least five times.
❀Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:

لا تحرم المصة ولا المصتان

“Drinking milk once or twice does not establish breastfeeding.”

Reference: (Sahih Muslim: 1450)

Establishing prohibition does not occur by placing the breast in the mouth once or twice.

Reference: (Sahih Muslim: 1451)
