Sahih al-Bukhari 2646 (Book 52, Hadith 10) #2532
Foster Relations and Marital Affairs

SUMMARY: The hadith explains that foster relations are treated like blood relations in marital affairs.

Narrated 'Amra bint 'Abdur-Rahman: That 'Aisha the wife of the Prophet told her uncle that once, while the Prophet was in her house, she heard a man asking Hafsa's permission to enter her house'.Aisha said, "I said, 'O Allah's Messenger ! I think the man is Hafsa's foster uncle'. " 'Aisha added, "O Allah's Messenger ! There is a man asking the permission to enter your house". Allah's Messenger replied, "I think the man is Hafsa's foster uncle"'.Aisha said, "If so-and-so were living (ie her foster uncle) would he be allowed to visit me?" Allah's Apostle said, "Yes, he would, as the foster relations are treated like blood relations (in marital affairs).
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ أَخْبَرَتْهَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَانَ عِنْدَهَا، وَأَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ صَوْتَ رَجُلٍ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي بَيْتِ حَفْصَةَ‏.‏ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أُرَاهُ فُلاَنًا‏.‏ لِعَمِّ حَفْصَةَ مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ‏.‏ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَذَا رَجُلٌ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي بَيْتِكَ‏.‏ قَالَتْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ أُرَاهُ فُلاَنًا ‏"‏‏.‏ لِعَمِّ حَفْصَةَ مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ‏.‏ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لَوْ كَانَ فُلاَنٌ حَيًّا ـ لِعَمِّهَا مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ ـ دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ نَعَمْ، إِنَّ الرَّضَاعَةَ تُحَرِّمُ مَا يَحْرُمُ مِنَ الْوِلاَدَةِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the importance of foster relations in Islam. It is narrated by 'Amra bint 'Abdur Rahman who heard it from Aisha, the wife of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The hadith states that when a man asked Hafsa's permission to enter her house, Aisha thought he was Hafsa's foster uncle and asked Prophet Muhammad ﷺ if it was true. He confirmed that it was indeed true and added that foster relations are treated like blood relations in marital affairs. This means that even though a person is not related to you by blood they can still be considered family when it comes to marriage matters. This teaches us the importance of treating our extended family with respect and kindness as they are just as important as our immediate family members.
