ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ لِلْمَرْءِ مُفَارَقَةُ أَهْلِهِ إِذَا شَهِدَتْ عِنْدَهُ امْرَأَةٌ عَدْلَهٌ أَنَّهَا أَرْضَعَتْهُمَا

"I married Umm Yahya daughter of Abu Ihab. A black woman entered upon us. She said that she had suckled both of us. So I came to the Prophet ﷺ, and amentioned it to him. He turned away from me. I said (to him): Messenger of Allah! she is a liar. He said: What do you know? She has said what she has said. Separate yourself from her (wife). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3603)   

ابن حبّان:٤٢١٦أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ الْبَزَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ

تَزَوَّجْتُ أُمَّ يَحْيَى بِنْتَ أَبِي إِهَابٍ فَدَخَلَتْ عَلَيْنَا امْرَأَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ فَذَكَرَتْ أَنَّهَا أَرْضَعَتْنَا جَمِيعًا فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «كَيْفَ بِهَا وَقَدْ قَالَتْ مَا قَالَتْ؟ دَعْهَا عَنْكَ»

[Machine] A companion of mine, who is also a companion of my friend Hafiz, informed me: "I married Umm Yahya bint Abi Ihab, and then a black woman entered upon us claiming that she had breastfed both of them." So, I mentioned this to the Prophet ﷺ , but he turned away from me. I mentioned it to him again, but he turned away from me. So, I said: "She is a liar." He said: "What makes you know that she is a liar and she has said what she said? Leave it alone."
