أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنْبَأَنَا مَعْنٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كَانَ أَفْلَحُ أَخُو أَبِي الْقُعَيْسِ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَىَّ وَهُوَ عَمِّي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ فَأَبَيْتُ أَنْ آذَنَ لَهُ حَتَّى جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ " ائْذَنِي لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ عَمُّكِ " . قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَذَلِكَ بَعْدَ أَنْ نَزَلَ الْحِجَابُ .
Harun ibn Abd Allah reported to us; Ma'n informed us; he said: Malik narrated to us, from Ibn Shihab, from Urwah, from A'ishah, who said: ‘Aflah, Abu al-Qays’s brother, used to ask permission to enter upon me; he was my uncle through nursing. I refused to admit him until the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came. I told him, and he said: “Let him in, for he is your uncle.”’ A'ishah said: ‘That was after the veil had been prescribed.’
Translation notes
This version names Aflah as Abu al-Qays’s brother and explicitly says he was A'ishah’s uncle through nursing; it dates the event to after the veil was prescribed.
