حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا لَكَ تَنَوَّقُ فِي قُرَيْشٍ وَتَدَعُنَا قَالَ وَعِنْدَكُمْ شَيْءٌ قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ ابْنَةُ حَمْزَةَ قَالَ إِنَّهَا لَا تَحِلُّ لِي هِيَ ابْنَةُ أَخِي مِنْ الرَّضَاعَةِ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 620
It was narrated that 'Ali said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, why do you choose to get married from among Quraish and you ignore us? He said: "Have you anybody to suggest?" I said: Yes, the daughter of Hamzah. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "She is not permissible for me (to marry), for she is the daughter of my brother through breastfeeding."
