- .... His statement: (And what is prohibited from a little or a lot of nursing): Others held that what is prohibited is anything beyond one nursing session.‏
- .... Then they differed, and it is narrated from Aisha that ten nursing sessions were required, as reported by Malik in the Muwatta.‏
- .... And from Hafsa similarly, and it is also reported from Aisha that seven nursing sessions were sufficient, narrated by Ibn Abi Khaythama with a sound chain from Abdullah ibn al-Zubair from her, and Abd al-Razzaq through the route of Urwa, that Aisha would say no less than seven or five nursing sessions would cause prohibition.
- .... It is also reported from Aisha that five nursing sessions were sufficient, and in Muslim it is mentioned that she said, "What was revealed from the Quran included ten clearly defined nursing sessions, which were then abrogated by five clearly defined nursing sessions, and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) died while they were still part of the recitation." And in Abd al-Razzaq with a sound chain from her, it is stated: She said, "No less than five clearly defined nursing sessions would cause prohibition," and al-Shafi'i adhered to this, as did a narration from Ahmad.

- .... Chapter: Nursing with fewer than five sessions does not establish a prohibition, and Abu Thawr said: Prohibition is established with three sessions, as Um al-Fadl (may Allah be pleased with her) reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) said: "Nursing does not make prohibited except in the case of a clasp or two clasps," which indicates that three sessions can establish prohibition. The evidence that fewer than five sessions do not establish prohibition is what Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated, who said: "Among what was revealed of the Qur'an was the absoluteness of ten clearly established nursing sessions that prohibited (marriages), then this was abrogated by five clearly established sessions." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) died, and these five were among what could be recited in the Qur'an."

This was later abrogated by five clearly established sucklings that would make marriage prohibited, and this was something that was recited after the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny), and there was no abrogation after that. Our proof is His, the Exalted, statement: {And your mothers are those who suckled you} (Surah An-Nisa 4:23). This establishes the prohibition through the act of suckling, so stipulating a specific number would be an addition to the text, and such an addition cannot be established by the report of a single narrator.
