27ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الثَّقَفِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُعَلَّى عَنْ أَخِيهِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ دُرُسْتَ بْنِ أَبِي مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ لَمَّا وُلِدَ النَّبِيُّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) مَكَثَ أَيَّاماً لَيْسَ لَهُ لَبَنٌ فَأَلْقَاهُ أَبُو طَالِبٍ عَلَى ثَدْيِ نَفْسِهِ فَأَنْزَلَ الله فِيهِ لَبَناً فَرَضَعَ مِنْهُ أَيَّاماً حَتَّى وَقَعَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ عَلَى حَلِيمَةَ السَّعْدِيَّةِ فَدَفَعَهُ إِلَيْهَا.
27. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Sa‘d ibn ‘Abdillah from Ibrahim ibn Muhammad al-Thaqafi from Ali ibn al-Mu‘alla from his brother Muhammad from Durusta ibn Abu Mansur from Ali ibn Abu Hamza from Abu Basir from Abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام who said: “When the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم was born, he remained for days without milk. Abu Talib himself breastfed him and Allah sent milk through his nipples. He continued to be breasted by him for several days until Abu Talib found Halima al-Sa‘diyyah, so he gave him to her.”
