Sunan an-Nasai 3307 (Book 26, Hadith 112) #17919
Abrogation of Ten Known Breast-Feedings Law

SUMMARY: This hadith explains that Allah revealed a law in the Quran that ten known breast-feedings make marriage prohibited, but this was later abrogated and changed to five known breast-feedings.

It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "One of the things that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed" -(one of the narrators) Al-Harith said (in his narration): "One of the things that were revealed in the Qur'an"- "was that ten known breast-feedings make marriage prohibited, then that was abrogated and changed to five known breast-feedings. Then the Messenger of Allah passed away when this was something that was still being recited in the Qur'an".
أَخْبَرَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ، قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كَانَ فِيمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ فِيمَا أُنْزِلَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ - عَشْرُ رَضَعَاتٍ مَعْلُومَاتٍ يُحَرِّمْنَ ثُمَّ نُسِخْنَ بِخَمْسٍ مَعْلُومَاتٍ فَتُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَهِيَ مِمَّا يُقْرَأُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains a law that was revealed by Allah in the Qur’an. The law stated that if two people were related through ten known breast feedings, then they would be prohibited from getting married. However, this law was later abrogated and changed to five known breast feedings instead of ten. This means that if two people are related through five or fewer known breast feedings, then they can get married without any problem. The Prophet Muhammad passed away when this new rule was still being recited in the Qur’an. This hadith teaches us about how laws can change over time and how important it is to follow the laws of Allah as stated in the Qur’an.
