Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, visited
Umm Salama while she was in mourning for Abu Salama and she had put
aloes on her eyes. He said, "What is this, Umm Salama?" She said, "It

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr from
Amra bint Abd ar-Rahman that A'isha, umm al-muminin informed her that
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was
with her and she heard the voice of a man asking permission to enter
the room of Hafsa. A'isha said that she had said, "Messenger of Allah!
There is a man asking permission to enter your house!" The Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "I think it
is so-and-so" (referring to a paternal uncle of Hafsa by suckling).
A'isha said, "Messenger of Allah! If so-and-so were alive (referring
to her paternal uncle by suckling) could he enter where I am?" The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"Yes. Suckling makes haram as birth makes haram."
