Sunnan an-Nasai 348

It was narrated that 'Aishah said

"We went out with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) with no intention other than Hajj. When he was in Sarif I began menstruating. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) entered upon me and I was weeping. He said: 'What is the matter with you? Has you Nifas begun?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'This is something that Allah the Mighty and Sublime has decreed for the daughters of Adam. Do what the pilgrims do but do not perform Tawaf around the House.'"

Chapter 46: If A Man Hints An Accusation About His Wife, And Wanted To Disown The Child

باب إِذَا عَرَّضَ بِامْرَأَتِهِ وَشَكَّ فِي وَلَدِهِ وَأَرَادَ الاِنْتِفَاءَ مِنْهُ ‏‏

Sunnan an-Nasai 3480

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said

"While we were with the Prophet, a man stood up and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, a black boy has been born to me.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'How did that happen?' He said: 'I do not know.' He said: 'Do you have camels?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'What color are they?' He said: 'Red.' He said: 'Are there any gray camels among them?' He said: 'There are some gray camels among them.' He said: 'Where do they come from?' He said: 'I do not know, O Allah's Messenger! Perhaps it is hereditary.' He said: 'Perhaps this is also hereditary.' Because of this, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) decreed the following: 'It is not allowed for a man, to disown a child who was born on his bed, unless he claimed that he had seen an immoral act (Fahishah).'"

The Prophet (ﷺ) was told of this, and he laughed so much that his back teeth became visible."
