Sahla daughter of Suhail came to Allah's Messenger (May peace be upon him) and said: Allah's Messenger, I swear by Allah that I see in the face of Abu Hudhaifa (the signs of disgust) on account of entering of Salim (in the house), whereupon Allah's Messenger (May peace be upon him) said: Suckle him. She (Sahla bint Suhail) said: He has a heard. But he (again) said: Suckle him, and it would remove what is there (expression of disgust) on the face of Abu Hudhaifa. She said: (I did that) and, by Allah, I did not see (any sign of disgust) on the face of Abu Hadhaifa. I would like to ask how this Sahabiah Sahla Bint Suhail had breastfed this man as it is mentioned he was an adult. How did he suck from her breast? Could the Prophet command an act which seems to be very discomforting for Salim was not an infant?
