ahmad:25620Yaḥyá > Hishām from my father > ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] "My uncle came to me from the breast-feeding and asked for permission from me after the curtain was struck. I said, 'I will not grant you permission until I seek permission from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' So, I mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said, 'Let your uncle come in to you.' I said, 'Indeed, the woman breastfed me and the man did not breastfeed me.' So, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'He is your uncle, so let him come in to you.'"

My foster uncle came and asked permission (to enter) but I refused to admit him till I asked Allah's Apostle about that. He said, "He is your uncle, so allow him to come in." I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I have been suckled by a woman and not by a man." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "He is your uncle, so let him enter upon you." And that happened after the order of Al-Hijab (compulsory veiling) was revealed. All things which become unlawful because of blood relations are unlawful because of the corresponding foster suckling relations.

My foster uncle came to me and sought permission (to enter the house), but I refused him permission until I had solicited the opinion of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, I said to him: My foster-uncle sought my permission to (enter the house), but I did not permit him, whereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: You better admit your uncle (into the house). I ('A'isha) said: It was the woman who suckled me and not the man. (But he) said: He is your uncle, admit him.

malik:30-2

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father that A'isha, umm al-muminin said, "My paternal uncle by suckling came to me and I refused to give him permission to enter until I had asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and I asked him about it. He said, 'He is your paternal uncle, so give him permission.' So I said, 'Messenger of Allah! The woman nursed me not the man.' He said, 'He is your paternal uncle, so let him enter.' " A'isha said, "That was after the veil had been imposed on us." A'isha added, "What is haram by birth is made haram by suckling."

darimi:2294Jaʿfar b. ʿAwn Anbʾanā Hishām b. ʿUrwah from his father > ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] Her uncle, the brother of her father Al-Quais, came to seek permission from her after the veiling of women had been commanded. She refused to give him permission until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and sought permission for him. When the Prophet ﷺ came, she mentioned this to him, and she said, "My uncle, the brother of my father, came, and I kept repeating it until I sought your permission." He said, "Isn't he your uncle?" She said, "He breastfed me, but I was not breastfed by a man." He said, "He is your uncle, so let him enter upon you." Aisha used to say that what is forbidden by birth is also forbidden by breastfeeding.
