حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ قَابُوسَ، قَالَ قَالَتْ أُمُّ الْفَضْلِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَأَيْتُ كَأَنَّ فِي بَيْتِي عُضْوًا مِنْ أَعْضَائِكَ قَالَ " خَيْرًا رَأَيْتِ تَلِدُ فَاطِمَةُ غُلاَمًا فَتُرْضِعِيهِ " . فَوَلَدَتْ حُسَيْنًا أَوْ حَسَنًا فَأَرْضَعَتْهُ بِلَبَنِ قُثَمَ قَالَتْ فَجِئْتُ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَوَضَعْتُهُ فِي حَجْرِهِ فَبَالَ فَضَرَبْتُ كَتِفَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " أَوْجَعْتِ ابْنِي رَحِمَكِ اللَّهُ " .

Allah!
It is as if I saw (in a dream) one of your limbs in my house.’

brought him
to the Prophet (ﷺ) and placed him in his lap, and he
urinated, so I
struck him on the shoulder.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“You have hurt my
son, may Allah have mercy on you.”

Mothers may breastfeed their children two complete years for whoever wishes to complete the nursing [period]. Upon the father is the mothers' provision and their clothing according to what is acceptable. No person is charged with more than his capacity. No mother should be harmed through her child, and no father through his child. And upon the [father's] heir is [a duty] like that [of the father]. And if they both desire weaning through mutual consent from both of them and consultation, there is no blame upon either of them. And if you wish to have your children nursed by a substitute, there is no blame upon you as long as you give payment according to what is acceptable. And fear Allah and know that Allah is Seeing of what you do.
