Hadith 1947

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ ، وَعُقَيْلٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَمْعَةَ ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ : " أَنَّ أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كُلَّهُنَّ خَالَفْنَ عَائِشَةَ وَأَبَيْنَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ عَلَيْهِنَّ أَحَدٌ بِمِثْلِ رَضَاعَةِ سَالِمٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ " ، وَقُلْنَ : وَمَا يُدْرِينَا لَعَلَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَتْ رُخْصَةً لِسَالِمٍ وَحْدَهُ .
´It was narrated from Zainab bint Abi Salamah:` that the wives of the Prophet all differed with 'Aishah and refused to allow anyone with ties of breastfeeding like Salim, the freed salve of Abu Hudhaifah, to enter upon them. They said: “How do we know? That may be a concession granted only to Salim.”

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefit:
This is also the position of the majority of scholars, as held by the noble wives of the Prophet (radi Allahu anhunna).
Imam Bukhari (rahimahullah) has also given preference to this view, as mentioned in the benefits of the previous ahadith. However, some individuals are of the opinion that suckling (rada‘ah) of an adult (kabir) is also permissible, which may be acted upon in cases of absolute necessity.
