Sunan an-Nasai 3287 (Book 26, Hadith 92) #17899
Refusing Marriage Proposals and Advising Against Offering Daughters and Sisters in Marriage

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) refused to marry Umm Habibah's sister, as she was the daughter of his brother through breast-feeding. He also advised her not to offer her daughters and sisters in marriage to him.

It was narrated from Umm Habibah that she said: "O Messenger of Allah, what do you think of my sister?" He said: "What for?" She said: "For marriage". He said: "Would you like that?" She said: "Yes; I do not have you all to myself, and I would like to share this goodness with my sister". He said: "She is not permissible for me (to marry)". She said: "But I heard that you want to marry Durrah, the daughter of Umm Salamah". He said: "The daughter of Umm Salamah?" She said: "Yes". He said: "By Allah, even if she were not my stepdaughter she would not be permissible for me (to marry), because she is the daughter of my brother through breast-feeding. Do not offer your daughters and sisters to me in marriage".
