Forbidden to you are your mothers, your daughters and your sisters, your paternal aunts and your maternal aunts, your brother’s daughters and your sister’s daughters, your [foster-]mothers who have suckled you¹ and your sisters through fosterage, your wives’ mothers, and your stepdaughters who are under your care [born] of the wives whom you have gone into —but if you have not gone into them there is no sin upon you— and the wives of your sons who are from your own loins, and that you should marry two sisters at one time —excluding what is already past; indeed Allah is all-forgiving, all-merciful—
