(Book 30, Hadith 10) #36335
The Rules of Suckling

SUMMARY: This hadith explains that any kind of suckling done in the first two years of a child's life makes it haram, while anything after two years is considered as food.

Yahya related to me from Malik that Ibrahim ibn Uqba asked Said ibn al-Musayyab about suckling. Said said, "All that occurs in the first two years, even if it is only a drop, makes haram. Whatever is after two years, is only food that is eaten". Ibrahim ibn Uqba said, ''Then I asked Urwa ibn az-Zubayr and he told me the same as what Said ibn al-Musayyab said".
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنِ الرَّضَاعَةِ، فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ كُلُّ مَا كَانَ فِي الْحَوْلَيْنِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ قَطْرَةً وَاحِدَةً فَهُوَ يُحَرِّمُ وَمَا كَانَ بَعْدَ الْحَوْلَيْنِ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ طَعَامٌ يَأْكُلُهُ ‏.‏ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ فَقَالَ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the rules regarding suckling or breastfeeding a child. It states that any kind of suckling done in the first two years of a child's life makes it haram or forbidden for them to marry each other later on in life. However, anything after two years is considered as food and does not have this effect. This hadith was narrated by Yahya from Malik who heard it from Ibrahim ibn Uqba who asked Said ibn al-Musayyab about this issue and he said that all that occurs in the first two years even if it is only a drop makes it haram for them to marry each other later on in life. He then asked Urwa ibn az-Zubayr and he told him the same thing as what Said Ibn Al Musayyab said. Therefore, this hadith teaches us to be careful when we are breastfeeding our children during their early stages so they can avoid any complications later on in their lives due to marriage restrictions caused by breastfeeding relationships between them and others during their childhoods.
