Muhammad was casting lustful glances at his own stepdaughter, Durrah bint Abi Salamah. The wife who mentioned this to Muhammad was not even the child’s own mother, so his interest in Durrah must have been generally noticed around the household. Durrah was a newborn (or, as some say, not even born) when Muhammad became her stepfather in 626, so she was a maximum of six years old when he died. Hence she was between two and six in the following ''hadiths''. | |||

Even if she were not my stepdaughter, she would not be lawful for me to marry, for she is my foster niece, for Thuwaybah has suckled me and Abu Salamah; so you should neither present your daughters, nor your sisters to me.”}} | |||

Umm Habibah said to Allah’s Apostle “We have heard that you want to marry Durrah bint Abi Salama.” Allah’s Apostle said, “Can she be married along with Umm Salamah [her mother]? Even if I have not married Umm Salamah, she would not be lawful for me to marry, for her father is my foster brother.” “And there is no blame on you if you make hint of betrothal or conceal it in your hearts. Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Forbearing.” (Q2:235)...}} | |||
