[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
