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.  

جَاءَ عَمِّي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَىَّ فَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْمِرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قُلْتُ إِنَّ عَمِّي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَىَّ فَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ عَمُّكِ قُلْتُ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ  

"Let him in, for he is your paternal uncle." She said: "The woman breast-fed me, not the man." He said: "He is your paternal uncle, so let him visit you."  

أَنَّ أَخَا أَبِي الْقُعَيْسِ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ بَعْدَ آيَةِ الْحِجَابِ فَأَبَتْ أَنْ تَأْذَنَ لَهُ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ ائْذَنِي لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ  

“My uncle through suckling came and asked permission (to enter) but I refused to admit him until I asked the Messenger of Allah. So the Messenger of Allah said: “Let him in since he is your uncle.’” She said: “It is only the woman who suckled me; I was not suckled by the man.’ So he said: ‘Indeed he is your uncle, so let him in.’”  

جَاءَ عَمِّي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَىَّ فَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْمِرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ فَإِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ قَالَتْ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ قَالَ فَإِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ  

X“My paternal uncle through breastfeeding came to visit me and I refused to let him in. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Let your paternal uncle visit you.' I said: 'But it is the woman who breastfed me; the man did not breastfeed me.' He said: 'He is your paternal uncle; let him visit you.”  

جَاءَ عَمِّي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَىَّ فَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ عَمُّكِ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ  

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."  

أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ عَلَىَّ حَتَّى أَسْأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَأْذَنِي لَهُ قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَذَلِكَ بَعْدَ مَا ضُرِبَ عَلَيْنَا الْحِجَابُ وَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ يَحْرُمُ مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ مَا يَحْرُمُ مِنَ الْوِلاَدَةِ  

[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.'"  

جَاءَنِي عَمِّي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَيَّبَعْدَمَا ضُرِبَ الْحِجَابُ قُلْتُ لَا آذَنُ لَكَ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْذِنَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لِيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ عَمُّكِ قُلْتُ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ هُوَ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ  

[Machine] "A'ishah reported that her uncle came to her after the command for women to observe the hijab was revealed, and she refused to give him permission. So I asked him why he wanted permission, and he said, 'Give him permission, for he is your uncle.' I said, 'The milk I drank was from a woman, not a man.' He said, 'May your right hand be covered in dust, give him permission, for he is your uncle.'"  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ جَاءَ عَمِّي بَعْدَمَا ضُرِبَ الْحِجَابُ فَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ ائْذَنِي لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ قُلْتُ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ؟ قَالَ تَرِبَتْ يَمِينُكِ ائْذَنِي لَهُ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ عَمُّكِ  

[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.  

أَنَّ عَمَّهَا أَخَا أَبِي الْقُعَيْسِ جَاءَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَيْهَا بَعْدَمَا ضُرِبَ الْحِجَابُ فَأَبَتْ أَنْ تَأْذَنَ لَهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَسْتَأْذِنَهُ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَتْ جَاءَ عَمِّي أَخُو أَبِي الْقُعَيْسِ فَرَدَدْتُهُ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْذِنَكَ قَالَ «أَوَ لَيْسَ بِعَمِّكِ؟» قَالَتْ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ «إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ» فَقََالَتْ وَكَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ تَقُولُ يَحْرُمُ مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ مَا يَحْرُمُ مِنَ الْوِلَادَةِ  

[Machine] She said, "My uncle came from the fosterage and he sought permission from me, but I refused to grant him permission until I asked the Prophet ﷺ." She said, "So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, and I asked him, and he said, 'He is your uncle, so grant him permission.'" She said, "O Messenger of Allah, I was only breastfed by a woman and not by a man." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The prohibitions of lineage are based on what is prohibited by birth."  

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ جَاءَ عَمِّي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةَ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيَّ فَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ حَتَّى أَسْأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَتْ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ «إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَأَذَنِي لَهُ» فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةٌ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَحْرُمُ مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ مَنْ يَحْرُمُ مِنَ الْوِلَادَةِ»  

"Let him in, for he is your paternal uncle." She said: "The woman breast-fed me, not the man." He said: "He is your paternal uncle, so let him visit you." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3315)  

أَنَّ أَخَا أَبِي الْقُعَيْسِ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ بَعْدَ آيَةِ الْحِجَابِ فَأَبَتْ أَنْ تَأْذَنَ لَهُ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «ائْذَنِي لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ» فَقُلْتُ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ «إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَلْيَلِجْ عَلَيْكِ»  

[Machine] The brother of my father's uncle came to seek permission from her after the veil was struck, but she refused to give him permission until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and she sought his permission. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, she mentioned that to him. He said, "Did your uncle not come?" She said, "The woman breastfed me and the man did not breastfeed me." He said, "He is your uncle, so let him enter upon you." Aisha considered breastfeeding to establish the relationship similar to that established by birth. They both reported it in Sahih from the Hadith of Hisham bin 'Urwah.  

أَخَا أَبِي الْقُعَيْسِ جَاءَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَيْهَا بَعْدَمَا ضُرِبَ الْحِجَابُ فَأَبَتْ أَنْ تَأْذَنَ لَهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَتَسْتَأْذِنَهُ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَتْ جَاءَ عَمِّي أَخُو أَبِي الْقُعَيْسِ فَرَدَدْتُهُ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْذِنَكَ فَقَالَ أَوَلَيْسَ بِعَمِّكِ؟ قَالَتْ إِنَّمَا أَرْضَعَتْنِي الْمَرْأَةُ وَلَمْ يُرْضِعْنِي الرَّجُلُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ فَيَلِجُ عَلَيْكِ وَكَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ تُحَرِّمُ مِنَ الرَّضَاعِ مَا تُحَرِّمُ مِنَ الْوِلَادَةِ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ
