Hadith 51
The Book of Marriage
Sa'eed narrated from Qatadah:
"We wrote to Ibrahim bin Yazid An-Nakha'i asking him about breast-feeding. He wrote back saying that Shuraih had narrated that 'Ali and Ibn Mas'ud used to say: 'A little or a lot of breast-feeding makes marriage prohibited.'" In his book, it said that Abu Ash-Sha'tha' Al-Muharibi narrated that 'Aishah had told him that the Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah used to say: "Suckling (Al-Khatfah) once or twice does not make (marriage) prohibited."
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ زُرَيْعٍ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ كَتَبْنَا إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ النَّخَعِيِّ نَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الرَّضَاعِ، فَكَتَبَ أَنَّ شُرَيْحًا، حَدَّثَنَا أَنَّ عَلِيًّا وَابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَا يَقُولاَنِ يُحَرِّمُ مِنَ الرَّضَاعِ قَلِيلُهُ وَكَثِيرُهُ . وَكَانَ فِي كِتَابِهِ أَنَّ أَبَا الشَّعْثَاءِ الْمُحَارِبِيَّ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ حَدَّثَتْهُ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَقُولُ
لاَ تُحَرِّمُ الْخَطْفَةُ وَالْخَطْفَتَانِ
