Hadith 1155

Ahmad reported it from the Hadith of 'Ali (RA), he said, "The little girl must be with her maternal aunt for the maternal aunt is (the same as) a mother."

وَأَخْرَجَهُ أَحْمَدُ: مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَلَيٍّ فَقَالَ: { وَالْجَارِيَةُ عِنْدَ خَالَتِهَا, فَإِنَّ اَلْخَالَةَ وَالِدَةٌ } <sup>1</sup>‏
