Title: Inheritance of a Foster Mother Question: Can a mother through breast-feeding inherit from her son? If not, why? Thanks Answer: The Qur'an has only specified a share for relationships by birth. This means that a foster mother does not have a specified share in the inheritance of a person. Nevertheless, a person may leave a will for any amount of money for his foster mother. I hope this helps. Moiz Amjad April 3, 2005
