أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَوَاءٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، وَأَيُّوبَ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ الْفَضْلِ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم سُئِلَ عَنِ الرَّضَاعِ فَقَالَ " لاَ تُحَرِّمُ الإِمْلاَجَةُ وَلاَ الإِمْلاَجَتَانِ " . وَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ " الْمَصَّةُ وَالْمَصَّتَانِ " .
Abd Allah ibn al-Sabbah ibn Abd Allah reported to us; he said: Muhammad ibn Sawa' narrated to us; he said: Sa'id narrated to us, from Qatadah and Ayyub, from Salih Abu al-Khalil, from Abd Allah ibn al-Harith ibn Nawfal, from Umm al-Fadl: The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was asked about nursing, and he said: ‘One or two sucklings do not establish prohibition.’ Qatadah said: ‘One or two sucks.’
Translation notes
The report’s two forms use terms for a single nursing or suckling; both the Prophet’s wording and Qatadah’s gloss are retained.
