Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عُمَارَةُ بْنُ ثَوْبَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطُّفَيْلِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقْسِمُ لَحْمًا بِالْجِعْرَانَةِ، وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ غُلاَمٌ أَحْمِلُ عُضْوَ الْبَعِيرِ، فَأَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ، فَبَسَطَ لَهَا رِدَاءَهُ، قُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذِهِ؟ قَالَ: هَذِهِ أُمُّهُ الَّتِي أَرْضَعَتْهُ.

The reply was, 'This is the woman who suckled him.'"
