The answer

The narrated by Muslim from Aisha clarifies the validity of the suckling of Salim, the mawla of Abu Hudhayfa. When he reached maturity, Abu Hudhayfa's wife became apprehensive, so the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, commanded her to suckle him to alleviate Abu Hudhayfa's concern and make him a to her. Regarding the manner of this suckling, scholars have two opinions: either she expressed milk for him to drink without him touching the breast, or touching the breast was overlooked due to necessity, given that it was the suckling of an adult. The reason for Abu Hudhayfa's discomfort was removed by the suckling, which was a specific concession for them.
