Khalid al-Khayyat narrated to us, from Abu Dhi'b, from al-Zuhri, who said: Ibn 'Umar and Ibn 'Abbas were asked about nursing after two years, and he recited: "And the mothers shall nurse their children for two whole years, for whoever wishes to complete the nursing."

Jubayr, regarding the statement of Allah, the Almighty and Majestic: "for whoever wishes to complete the nursing," meaning: to perfect the nursing. It has been narrated from Muqatil b.
