قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) الرَّجُلُ أَحَقُّ بِوَلَدِهِ أَمِ الْمَرْأَةُ قَالَ لَا بَلِ الرَّجُلُ فَإِنْ قَالَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ لِزَوْجِهَا الَّذِي طَلَّقَهَا أَنَا أُرْضِعُ ابْنِي بِمِثْلِ مَا تَجِدُ مَنْ تُرْضِعُهُ فَهِيَ أَحَقُّ بِهِ .
Translation
Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moala Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Al Washa, from Aban, from Fazl Abu Al Abbas who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘Is the man more deserving with his son or the woman?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No, but the man. So if the woman says to her husband who had divorced her, ‘I will breast-feed my son with similar to what you would find the one who would breast-feed him, so she would be more rightful with it’.
