4796. Narrated رضي الله عنها 'Aishah: Aflah, the brother of Abī Al-Qu'ais, asked permission to visit me after the order of Al-Hijāb was revealed. I said, "I will not permit him unless I take permission of the Prophet ﷺ about him, for it was not the brother of Abī Al-Qu'ais but the wife of Abī Al-Qu'ais that nursed me." The Prophet ﷺ entered upon me and I said to him, "O Allāh's Messenger! Aflah, the brother of Abī Al-Qu'ais asked permission to visit me but I refused to permit him unless I took your permission." The Prophet ﷺ said, "What stopped you from permitting him? He is your uncle." I said, "O Allāh's Messenger! The man was not the person who had nursed me, but the woman, the wife of Abī Al-Qu'ais had nursed me." He said, "Admit him, for he is your uncle. Tarībat Yamīnuki (may your right hand be in dust)". 'Urwa, the subnarrator added: For that 'Aishah used to say, "Consider those things which are illegal because of blood relations as illegal because of the corresponding foster suckling relations."
