HUSBAND AND WIFE SUCKLED BY THE SAME SUCKLING MOTHER

596

“Ukbah married a daughter of Abu Ihab, son of Abdul Aziz. Later a woman came to him and said that she had suckled both of them. Ukbah told her, ‘I had no knowledge that you suckled me, neither did you tell me.’ So he rode to the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, in Medina and put the matter before him. The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said, ‘Now that you know this, how can you continue?’ So Ukbah divorced her and she married someone else.”

Bukhari with a chain up to Ukbah the son of Harith who related this hadith.
