"I was thinking of forbidding Ghilah until I remembered that it is done by the Persians and Romans" -(one of the narrators) Ishaq said: "(They) do that -and it does not harm their children."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أَنْهَى عَنِ الْغِيلَةِ حَتَّى ذَكَرْتُ أَنَّ فَارِسَ وَالرُّومَ يَصْنَعُهُ وَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ يَصْنَعُونَهُ فَلاَ يَضُرُّ أَوْلاَدَهُمْ
