[Machine] She said, "My cousin, Abu Qays' brother, asked for permission to see me after the veil was struck upon us. So I said, 'I will not give you permission until the Prophet ﷺ comes.' When the Prophet ﷺ came, I sought his permission and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, my cousin, Abu Qays' brother, asked for permission to see me, but I refused to give him permission until I sought your permission. The wife of Abu Qays breastfed me, and Abu Qays did not breastfeed me.' He ﷺ said, 'Give him permission, for he is your uncle.'

Aflah, the brother of Abi Al-Quʿais, asked permission to visit me after the order of Al-Hijab was revealed. I said, "I will not permit him unless I take permission of the Prophet ﷺ about him for it was not the brother of Abi Al-Quʿais but the wife of Abi Al-Quʿais that nursed me." The Prophet ﷺ entered upon me, and I said to him, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Aflah, the brother of Abi Al-Quʿais asked permission to visit me but I refused to permit him unless I took your permission." The Prophet ﷺ said, "What stopped you from permitting him? He is your uncle." I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! The man was not the person who had nursed me, but the woman, the wife of Abi Al-Quʿais had nursed me." He said, "Admit him, for he is your uncle. Taribat Yaminuki (may your right hand be saved)" ʿUrwa, the sub-narrator added: For that ʿAisha used to say, "Consider those things which are illegal because of blood relations as illegal because of the corresponding foster relations."

Allah, the brother of Abu Al-Qu'ais asked my permission to enter after the verses of Al-Hijab (veiling the ladies) was revealed, and I said, "By Allah, I will not admit him unless I take permission of Allah's Apostle for it was not the brother of Al-Qu'ais who had suckled me, but it was the wife of Al-Qu'ais, who had suckled me." Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon me, and I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! The man has not nursed me but his wife has nursed me." He said, "Admit him because he is your uncle (not from blood relation, but because you have been nursed by his wife), Taribat Yaminuki." ʿUrwa said, "Because of this reason, ' Aisha used to say: Foster suckling relations render all those things (marriages etc.) illegal which are illegal because of the corresponding blood relations."

By Allah, I would not permit Aflah unless I have solicited the opinion of Messenger of Allah ﷺ for Abu Qulais has not suckled me, but his wife has given me suck. 'A'isha' (Allah be pleased with her) said: When Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered, I said: Messenger of Allah, Aflah is the brother of Abu'l-Qulais; he came to me to seek my permission for entering (the houst). I did not like the idea of granting him permission until I had solicited your opinion. Thereupon Allah's Apostle ﷺ said: Grant him permission. 'Urwa said it was on account of this that 'A'isha used to say. What is unlawful by reason of consanguinity is unlawful by reason of fosterage.

She refused to give him permission until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and sought permission for him.
