Hadeeth

Umm Fadl (Allaah be pleased with her) reported that Allaah’s Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “Being suckled once or twice, or one suckling or two, do not make marriage unlawful”. (Saheeh Muslim 1/469 no.3593)

(TN the hadeeth below explains further, infact Imaam Muslim has reported a number of ahadeeth relating to this [this is just to highlight the issue]))

and Umm al-Fadl reported: A bedouin came to Allaah’s Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) when he was in my house and said: Allaah’s Prophet, I have had a wife and I married another besides her, and my first wife claimed that she had suckled once or twice my newly married wife, thereupon Allaah’s Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: One suckling or two do not make the (marriage) unlawful. .” 

Hanafee Fiqh

“Whether there is a little sucking or alot and if it is in the suckling period (ie the age it is up until according to the hanafee madhab) then it establishes (marriage) being unlawful.” (Hidaayah Awalain 2/350)
