Sahih al-Bukhari 88 (Book 3, Hadith 30)
came to him and said, “I have suckled (nursed) `Uqba and the woman whom he married (his wife) at
my breast.” `Uqba said to her, “Neither I knew that you have suckled (nursed) me nor did you tell
me.” Then he rode over to see Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) at Medina, and asked him about it. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said,
“How can you keep her as a wife when it has been said (that she is your foster-sister)?” Then `Uqba
divorced her, and she married another man.
“ كَيْفَ وَقَدْ قِيلَ ”. فَفَارَقَهَا عُقْبَةُ، وَنَكَحَتْ زَوْجًا غَيْرَهُ.
