حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّی حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي جَعْفَرُ بْنُ يَحْيَی بْنِ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَارَةُ بْنُ ثَوْبَانَ أَنَّ أَبَا الطُّفَيْلِ أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْسِمُ لَحْمًا بِالْجِعِرَّانَةِ قَالَ أَبُو الطُّفَيْلِ وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ غُلَامٌ أَحْمِلُ عَظْمَ الْجَزُورِ إِذْ أَقْبَلَتْ امْرَأَةٌ حَتَّی دَنَتْ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَبَسَطَ لَهَا رِدَائَهُ فَجَلَسَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هِيَ فَقَالُوا هَذِهِ أُمُّهُ الَّتِي أَرْضَعَتْهُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 5144
Narrated Abut Tufayl: I saw the Prophet ﷺ distributing flesh at Ji'irranah, and I was a boy in those days bearing the bone of the camel, and when a woman who came forward approach the Prophet ﷺ, he spread out his cloak for her, and she sat on it. I asked: Who is she? The people said: She is his foster-mother.
