Malik Muwatta: Hadith 1334

30. Suckling

موطأ مالك

1334
Malik Muwatta
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، كَانَ يَقُولُ لاَ رَضَاعَةَ إِلاَّ لِمَنْ أُرْضِعَ فِي الصِّغَرِ وَلاَ رَضَاعَةَ لِكَبِيرٍ ‏.‏
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar said, "There is no kinship by suckling except for a person who is nursed when he is small. There is no kinship by suckling over the age of two years."
