1947. It was narrated from Zainab bint Abi Salamah that the wives of the Prophet ﷺ all differed with 'Aishah and refused to allow anyone with ties of breastfeeding like Sâlim, the freed slave of Abu Hudhaifah, to enter upon them. They said: "How do we know? That may be a concession granted only to Sâlim." (Sahih)

Arabic text

1947 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، وَعُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَمْعَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ، " أَنَّ أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كُلَّهُنَّ خَالَفْنَ عَائِشَةَ، وَأَبَيْنَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ عَلَيْهِنَّ أَحَدٌ بِمِثْلِ رَضَاعَةِ سَالِمٍ، مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ، وَقُلْنَ: وَمَا يُدْرِينَا؟ لَعَلَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَتْ رُخْصَةً لِسَالِمٍ وَحْدَهُ "

Commentary

The same opinion of the Pure Wives of Prophet ﷺ is that of the majority scholars. Imam Bukhârî preferred it too; as mentioned in the comments of the previous Ahâdith. However some people are also in favor of effectiveness of suckling a grown up man; which may be practised in extreme circumstances. For further elaboration one may see in the appendix of Tafsîr Ahsanul-Bayân, "Some Essential Rules of Fosterage," in the Urdu version.
