Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ قَالَا ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُهَاجِرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ سَكَنٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّةِ قَالَتْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ لَا تَقْتُلُوا أَوْلَادَكُمْ سِرًّا فَإِنَّ الْغَيْلَ يُدْرِكُ الْفَارِسَ فَيُدَعْثِرُهُ مِنْ فَوْقِ فَرَسِهِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ أَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ يَزِيدَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّةُ قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ.

Abu al-Mughirah and Ali ibn Ayyash narrated to us. They said: Muhammad ibn Muhajir narrated to us, my father narrated to me, from Asma' bint Yazid ibn Sakan al-Ansariyyah, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "Do not kill your children secretly, for the ghail (breastfeeding during pregnancy) catches up with the horseman and throws him off his horse." Ali said: Asma' bint Yazid al-Ansariyyah said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said - and he mentioned the same.
