أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدَةَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ
يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ لَكَ فِي أُخْتِي قَالَ فَأَصْنَعُ مَاذَا قَالَتْ تَزَوَّجُهَا قَالَ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكِ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ لَسْتُ لَكَ بِمُخْلِيَةٍ وَأَحَبُّ مَنْ يَشْرَكُنِي فِي خَيْرٍ أُخْتِي قَالَ إِنَّهَا لاَ تَحِلُّ لِي قَالَتْ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّكَ تَخْطُبُ دُرَّةَ بِنْتَ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ بِنْتُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ وَاللَّهِ لَوْ لَمْ تَكُنْ رَبِيبَتِي مَا حَلَّتْ لِي إِنَّهَا لاَبْنَةُ أَخِي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ فَلاَ تَعْرِضْنَ عَلَىَّ بَنَاتِكُنَّ وَلاَ أَخَوَاتِكُنَّ

"O Messenger of Allah, what do you think of my sister?" He said: "What for?" She said: "For marriage." He said: "Would you like that?" She said: "Yes; I do not have you all to myself, and I would like to share this goodness with my sister." He said: "She is not permissible for me (to marry)." She said: "But I heard that you want to marry Durrah, the daughter of Umm Salamah." He said: "The daughter of Umm Salamah?" She said: "Yes." He said: "By Allah, even if she were not my stepdaughter she would not be permissible for me (to marry), because she is the daughter of my brother through breast-feeding. Do not offer your daughters and sisters to me in marriage."

machine translationHishām b. ʿUrwah narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. ʿAbdullāh b. Numayr and Muḥammad b. Bishr narrated it from Hishām b. ʿUrwah, from his father, from Zaynab bint Umm Salamah, from Umm Salamah, from Umm Ḥabībah. Shuʿayb b. Ayyūb said that from Ibn Numayr. Sulaymān b. al-Ḥasan, the brother of al-Muqtaṣid, differed from him and narrated it from Ibn Numayr, from Hishām in this way, and he said in it: from Umm Salamah, from Umm Ḥabībah, who said: "O Messenger of God." Abū Muʿāwiyah al-Ḍarīr, Mālik b. Suʿayr and ʿAlī b. Ghurāb narrated it likewise. There is disagreement about Abū Usāmah: Abū Masʿūd Aḥmad b. al-Furāt narrated it from him, from Hishām, in the same way, while others do not mention Umm Salamah in it, saying: from Abū Usāmah, from Hishām, from his father, from Zaynab, from Umm Ḥabībah. Likewise said Ibn ʿUyaynah, Ḥammād b. Zayd, Ibn Jurayj, al-Mufaḍḍal b. Faḍālah, Muḥāḍir b. al-Muwarriʿ and Anas b. ʿIyāḍ; they narrated it from Hishām, from his father, from Zaynab, that Umm Ḥabībah said: "O Messenger of God." Jarīr b. ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd narrated it from Hishām, from his father, who said: Umm Ḥabībah said; he did not mention Zaynab or Umm Salamah. Al-Zuhrī narrated it from ʿUrwah, from Zaynab, that Umm Ḥabībah, and did not mention Umm Salamah. Abū l-Zinād narrated it likewise from ʿUrwah. Yazīd b. Abī Ḥabīb also narrated it likewise from ʿIrāk b. Mālik, from Zaynab, from Umm Ḥabībah; they did not mention Umm Salamah in it. The preserved (maḥfūẓ) version from Hishām is: from his father, from Zaynab, from Umm Salamah, that Umm Ḥabībah.
