Musnad Ahmad 770

Translation

✧ When we left Makkah, the daughter of Hamzah followed us, calling out, "O uncle, O uncle." He said: I took her by the hand and gave her to Fatimah, saying, "Here is your cousin's daughter." He said: When we arrived in Madinah, we disputed about her—I, Ja'far, and Zayd b. Harithah. Ja'far said, "She is my cousin's daughter, and her maternal aunt is with me—meaning Asma' bt. 'Umays." Zayd said, "She is my brother's daughter." I said, "I took her, and she is my cousin's daughter." The Messenger of God ﷺ said, "As for you, O Ja'far, you resemble my physical appearance and my character. As for you, O 'Ali, you are from me and I am from you. As for you, O Zayd, you are our brother and our client. The girl should be with her maternal aunt, for the maternal aunt is like a mother." I said, "O Messenger of God, will you not marry her?" He said, "She is the daughter of my brother through suckling."
