It is mentioned in Quran that mothers should breast feed infants for two years. It is the responsibility of the mother to feed their children, from this is the relationship with mother and the children to show kindness and care and due to this respect and obedience of the mother in the children hearts. Both girls and boys should be feed for 2 years; they can reduce the period however feeding after two years is not appropriate. According to the child his mother milk is for him, if there is some problem or mother feed is not good then they can hire any pious women for feeding. If a mother is divorce or not feeding is mandatory to her, but the father cannot afford to pay for feeding or he could not manage any other women for feeding or child cannot accept any other women's milk, if all these things are not then it is not mandatory but mustahib. If a child doesn't need breastfeeding or there is no harm for him to discontinue mother feeding before 2 years. Child’s milk is father's responsibility and mandatory but if mother is willingly feeding then it is mustahib. Husband cannot force her wife for feeding and mother cannot ask money for feeding till she is his wife and in his Nikhah. A healthy woman can feed her child for 2 years. It is not good for more than 2 years because the amount of mother's milk reduced and the child hunger increase and his teeth is coming and he needs other solid foods which he can cut and chew the food. Mothers should start feeding soft food when the child grows so that breast feeding can be reduced and the child can easily shift eating habits and leave breast feeding.
