Sahih Muslim Book - 17, Hadith - 3588

وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحِ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِى حَبِيبٍ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ شِهَابٍ كَتَبَ يَذْكُرُ أَنَّ عُرْوَةَ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتَ أَبِى سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَتْهُ أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- حَدَّثَتْهَا أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ انْكِحْ أُخْتِى عَزَّةَ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « أَتُحِبِّينَ ذَلِكِ ». فَقَالَتْ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَسْتُ لَكَ بِمُخْلِيَةٍ وَأَحَبُّ مَنْ شَرِكَنِى فِى خَيْرٍ أُخْتِى. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « فَإِنَّ ذَلِكِ لاَ يَحِلُّ لِى ». قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّا نَتَحَدَّثُ أَنَّكَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَنْكِحَ دُرَّةَ بِنْتَ أَبِى سَلَمَةَ. قَالَ « بِنْتَ أَبِى سَلَمَةَ ». قَالَتْ نَعَمْ. قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « لَوْ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ رَبِيبَتِى فِى حَجْرِى مَا حَلَّتْ لِى إِنَّهَا ابْنَةُ أَخِى مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ أَرْضَعَتْنِى وَأَبَا سَلَمَةَ ثُوَيْبَةُ فَلاَ تَعْرِضْنَ عَلَىَّ بَنَاتِكُنَّ وَلاَ أَخَوَاتِكُنَّ ».

Umm Habibah, the wife of the Prophet (s.a.w), narrated that she said to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w): "O Messenger of Allah, marry my sister 'Azzah." The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Would you like that?" She said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah. I am not your only wife, and I would like my sister to share with me in the goodness." The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "That is not permissible for me." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, we have been told that you want to marry Durrah hint Abi Salamah." He said: "The daughter of Abu Salamah?" She said: "Yes." The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Even if she were not my stepdaughter under my care, she would not be permissible for me (to marry), for she is the daughter of my brother through breastfeeding. Her father Abu Salamah and I were both breastfed by Thuwaibah. Do not offer your daughters or sisters to me in marriage."
