Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 26, Hadith 110

It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “Mention was made to the Messenger of Allah of the daughter of Hamzah (as a potential wife). He said: ‘She is the daughter of my brother through breast-feeding.'” (One of the narrators) Shu’bah said: “Qatadah heard this from Jabir bin Zaid.”

أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ ذُكِرَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِنْتُ حَمْزَةَ فَقَالَ ‏
“‏ إِنَّهَا ابْنَةُ أَخِي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ هَذَا سَمِعَهُ قَتَادَةُ مِنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ‏.‏

Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 26, Hadith 110

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Sunan an-Nasa’i stands as one of the six canonical collections of hadith, known as the Kutub al-Sittah, which are foundational to Sunni Islamic jurisprudence and theology. This significant work was compiled by the esteemed 9th-century scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i. The collection is distinguished by its author’s meticulous and rigorous methodology, which involved a stringent process for verifying the authenticity of each narration. By deliberately excluding traditions he deemed weak or fabricated, al-Nasa’i created a compilation of over 5,700 hadiths that is highly respected for its reliability and its focused emphasis on the authentic sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad.
