عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا كَانَ بَطْنِي لَهُ وِعَاءً وَحِجْرِي لَهُ حِوَاءً وَثَدْيِي لَهُ سِقَاءً وَزَعَمَ أَبُوهُ أَنَّهُ يَنْزِعُهُ مِنِّي قَالَ أَنْتِ أَحَقُّ بِهِ مَا لَمْ تَنْكِحِي
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that a woman came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! This is my son, my womb was his protection, my lap gathered him, and my breast nourished him. Now his father thinks to take him away from me. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: As long as you do not marry again, you are more entitled to him.
