“My paternal uncle through breastfeeding, Aflah bin Abu Qu'ais, came and asked permission to visit me, after the ruling on veiling had been enjoined, and I refused to let him in, until the Prophet came in and said: 'He is your paternal uncle; let him in.' I said: 'But it is the woman who breastfed me; the man did not breastfeed me.' He said: 'May your hands be rubbed with dust', or: 'May your right hand be rubbed with dust!” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1948)

أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ ائْذَنِي لَهُ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ عَمُّكِ قُلْتُ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ قَالَ تَرِبَتْ يَمِينُكِ هُوَ عَمُّكِ
