أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ، أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ ، قَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هَلْ لَكَ فِي أُخْتِي ابْنَةِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ؟ قَالَ : فَأَفْعَلُ مَاذَا ؟ " , قَالَتْ : تَنْكِحُهَا ، قَالَ : " وَذَاكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكِ ؟ " , قَالَتْ : نَعَمْ ، لَسْتُ لَكَ بِمُخْلِيَةٍ ، وَأَحَبُّ مَنْ شَرِكَنِي فِي الْخَيْرِ أُخْتِي ، قَالَ : " إِنَّهَا لَا تَحِلُّ لِي " , قُلْتُ : فَإِنَّهُ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّكَ تَخْطُبُ دُرَّةَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ , قَالَ : " ابْنَةُ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ؟ " , قَالَتْ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ :
" فَوَاللَّهِ لَوْ لَمْ تَكُنْ رَبِيبَتِي فِي حِجْرِي لَمَا حَلَّتْ لِي ، إِنَّهَا ابْنَةُ أَخِي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ ، أَرْضَعَتْنِي وَأَبَاهَا ثُوَيْبَةُ ، فَلَا تَعْرِضْنَ عَلَيَّ بَنَاتِكُنَّ ، وَلَا أَخَوَاتِكُنَّ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that once Hazrat Umm Habibah came to the presence of the Messenger of Allah and said, "O Messenger of Allah, are you interested in my sister?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "What do you mean?" She said, "You should marry her." The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked, "Do you like this?" She replied, "Yes, I am not your only wife, so among those who can share in this goodness with me, my sister is the most deserving in my view." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "She is not lawful for me (because you are in my marriage)." She said, "By Allah, I have heard that you are going to send a marriage proposal for Durrah bint Umm Salamah." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Even if she were lawful for me, I would not marry her, because both I and her father (Abu Salamah) were suckled by Thuwaibah, the freed slave woman of Banu Hashim. In any case, do not present your sisters and daughters before me."
