Question:
What is the opinion of the scholars regarding the story of the breastfeeding of my slave, Salim, by Abu Hudhayfah, and how is that explained?
Answer:
Yes, and they said that this is a specific case with no general application. The story of Salim is established, but it is a specific case, and specific cases have no general application according to the scholars of usul al-fiqh (the principles of jurisprudence). It is a case specific to Salim only, as evidenced by the fact that the Companions differed from this, and only a few of them, or Aisha alone, issued a ruling on it. Yes.
