In Islam, a person whom he/she cannot marry is called Mahram. A woman's male mahrams fall into four categories (three categories in the strict-sense definition that does not count one's spouse). Note that mahrams for a man can be derived in a similar manner.
(SO ONE CAN MARRY ANYONE BUT THE FOLLOWING RELATIONS)
- Permanent or blood mahrams with whom one is mahram by a blood relationship:
- father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, great-grandfather, great-grandmother and so on;
- brother, sister;
- son, grandson, great-grandson, daughter, granddaughter, great-granddaughter and so on;
- uncle, aunt, great-uncle, great-aunt, and so on;
- nephew, niece, grandnephew, grandniece, great-grandnephew, great-grandniece and so on;
- In-law mahrams with whom one becomes mahram by marrying someone:
- father-in-law, mother-in-law;
- son-in-law, daughter-in-law,
- stepfather (mother's husband) if their marriage is consummated, stepmother (father's wife) if their marriage is consummated;
- stepson (husband's son) if their marriage is consummated, stepdaughter (wife's daughter) if their marriage is consummated;
- Rada or "milk-suckling mahrams" with whom one becomes mahram because of being nursed by the same woman. When a woman acts as a wetnurse, that is she breast feeds an infant that is not her own child for a certain amount of time under certain conditions, she becomes the child's rada mother and everything concerning blood mahrams applies here, ike rada father/mother, rada sister/brother, rada aunt/uncle and so on. In English these can be referred to as milk brother, milk-mother, and so on.
