Abu Hudhaifa bin ʿUtba bin Rabiʿa bin ʿAbdi Shams who had witnessed the battle of Badr along with the Prophet ﷺ adopted Salim as his son, to whom he married his niece, Hind bint Al-Walid bin ʿUtba bin Rabiʿa; and Salim was the freed slave of an Ansar woman, just as the Prophet ﷺ had adopted Zaid as his son. It was the custom in the Pre-lslamic Period that if somebody adopted a boy, the people would call him the son of the adoptive father and he would be the latter's heir. But when Allah revealed the Divine Verses: 'Call them by (the names of) their fathers . . . your freed-slaves,' (33.5) the adopted persons were called by their fathers' names. The one whose father was not known, would be regarded as a Maula and your brother in religion. Later on Sahla bint Suhail bin ʿAmr Al-Quraishi Al-ʿAmiri-- and she was the wife of Abu- Hudhaifa bin ʿUtba--came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! We used to consider Salim as our (adopted) son, and now Allah has revealed what you know (regarding adopted sons)." The sub-narrator then mentioned the rest of the narration.  

أَنَّ أَبَا حُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ تَبَنَّى سَالِمًا وَأَنْكَحَهُ بِنْتَ أَخِيهِ هِنْدَ بِنْتَ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ وَهْوَ مَوْلًى لاِمْرَأَةٍ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ كَمَا تَبَنَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَيْدًا وَكَانَ مَنْ تَبَنَّى رَجُلاً فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ دَعَاهُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ وَوَرِثَ مِنْ مِيرَاثِهِ حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {ادْعُوهُمْ لآبَائِهِمْ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {وَمَوَالِيكُمْ} فَرُدُّوا إِلَى آبَائِهِمْ فَمَنْ لَمْ يُعْلَمْ لَهُ أَبٌ كَانَ مَوْلًى وَأَخًا فِي الدِّينِ فَجَاءَتْ سَهْلَةُ بِنْتُ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْقُرَشِيِّ ثُمَّ الْعَامِرِيِّ وَهْىَ امْرَأَةُ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَرَى سَالِمًا وَلَدًا وَقَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

It was narrated from 'Aishah the wife of the Prophet, and Umm Salamah the wife of the Prophet that Abu Hudhaifah bin 'Utbah bin Rabi'ah bin Abd Shams --who was one of those who had been present at Badr with the Messenger of Allah-- adopted Salim --who was the freed slave of an Ansari woman-- as the Messenger of Allah had adopted Zaid bin Harithah. Abu Hudhaifah bin 'Utbah married Salim to his brother's daughter Hind bint Al-Walid bin 'Utbah bin Rabi'ah. Hind bint Al-Walid bin 'Utbah was one of the first Muhajir women, and at that time she was one of the best single women of the Quraish. When Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed the following concerning Zaid bin Harithah: "Call them by (the names of) their fathers, that is more just with Allah. But if you know not their fathers' (names, call them) your brothers in Faith and Mawalikum (your freed slaves).' Each of them went back to being called after his father, and if a person's father was unknown, he was named after his former masters.  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّ أَبَا حُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَبَنَّى سَالِمًا وَهُوَ مَوْلًى لاِمْرَأَةٍ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ كَمَا تَبَنَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَيْدَ بْنَ حَارِثَةَ وَأَنْكَحَ أَبُو حُذَيْفَةَ بْنُ عُتْبَةَ سَالِمًا ابْنَةَ أَخِيهِ هِنْدَ ابْنَةَ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ وَكَانَتْ هِنْدُ بِنْتُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرَاتِ الأُوَلِ وَهِيَ يَوْمَئِذٍ مِنْ أَفْضَلِ أَيَامَى قُرَيْشٍ فَلَمَّا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ فِي زَيْدِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ { ادْعُوهُمْ لآبَائِهِمْ هُوَ أَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ } رُدَّ كُلُّ أَحَدٍ يَنْتَمِي مِنْ أُولَئِكَ إِلَى أَبِيهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُعْلَمُ أَبُوهُ رُدَّ إِلَى مَوَالِيهِ  

[Machine] Abu Hudhayfah adopted Salim, who was a slave to a woman from the Ansar, just as the Prophet ﷺ adopted Zaid. In pre-Islamic times, if a man adopted a child, the people called him the child's son and he would inherit from the adopted father. Until Allah revealed the verse, "Call them by [the names of] their fathers; it is more just in the sight of Allah. But if you do not know their fathers - then they are [still] your brothers in religion and those entrusted to you" (Quran 33:5). So they returned to their fathers. Anyone who didn't have a known father would call him a mawla (slave) and a brother in religion. Sahla came and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we used to see Salim as a young boy who would stay with me and Abu Hudhayfah. He would see me without any prohibition, and Allah has revealed what you know about them." He then said, "Breastfeed him five times, so he will become your mahram (unmarriageable) like your own children."  

أَنَّ أَبَا حُذَيْفَةَ تَبَنَّى سَالِمًا وَهُوَ مَوْلًى لِامْرَأَةٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ كَمَا تَبَنَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَيْدًا وَكَانَ مَنْ تَبَنَّى رَجُلًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ دَعَاهُ النَّاسُ ابْنَهُ وَوَرِثَ مِنْ مِيرَاثِهِ حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {ادْعُوهُمْ لِآبَائِهِمْ هُوَ أَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَعْلَمُوا آبَاءَهُمْ فَإِخْوَانُكُمْ فِي الدِّينِ وَمَوَالِيكُمْ} [الأحزاب 5] فَرُدُّوا إِلَى آبَائِهِمْ فَمَنْ لَمْ يُعْلَمْ لَهُ أَبٌ فَمَوْلًى وَأَخٌ فِي الدِّينِ فَجَاءَتْ سَهْلَةُ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كُنَّا نَرَى سَالِمًا وَلَدًا يَأْوِي مَعِي وَمَعَ أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ وَيَرَانِي فُضُلًا وَقَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ فِيهِمْ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ فَقَالَ أَرْضِعِيهِ خَمْسَ رَضَعَاتٍ فَكَانَ بِمَنْزِلَةِوَلَدِهِ مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ  

[Machine] That Abu Hudhaifa ibn Utbah ibn Rabiah was one of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he had participated in the Battle of Badr. He had adopted a man named Salim, who was called Salim, the freed slave of Abu Hudhaifa. Similar to how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had adopted Zaid ibn Haritha. Abu Hudhaifa had married Salim to his nephew's daughter, Fatimah bint al-Walid ibn Utbah. At that time, she was one of the early emigrants (muhajirat) and it was then considered one of the best days for the Quraysh. When Allah revealed in regard to Zaid ibn Haritha what He revealed, saying, "Call them by [the names of] their fathers; it is more just in the sight of Allah. But if you do not know their fathers - then they are [still] your brothers in religion and those entrusted to you," everyone who had adopted such individuals had them returned to their own fathers. And if their fathers were not known, they were returned to their masters. Then Sahla bint Suhail, the wife of Abu Hudhaifa from the tribe of Banu 'Amir ibn Luay, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we used to consider Salim as our son, and he would enter upon me freely, while we have only one house. What do you think about this matter?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Breastfeed him five times with your milk, and he would then be prohibited for you by the bond of fosterage."
