Sunnan an-Nasai 3496
It was narrated that Abu Maimunah said
"While I was with Abu Hurairah he said: 'A woman came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: May my father and mother be ransomed for you! My husband wants to take my son away, but he helps me, and brings me water from the well of Abu 'Inabah. Her husband came and said: Who is going to take my son from me? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "O boy, this is your father and this is your mother; take the hand of whichever of them you want." He took his mother's hand and she left with him.'"أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي زِيَادٌ، عَنْ هِلاَلِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مَيْمُونَةَ، قَالَ بَيْنَا أَنَا عِنْدَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، فَقَالَ إِنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَتْ فَدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي إِنَّ زَوْجِي يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ بِابْنِي وَقَدْ نَفَعَنِي وَسَقَانِي مِنْ بِئْرِ أَبِي عِنَبَةَ . فَجَاءَ زَوْجُهَا وَقَالَ مَنْ يُخَاصِمُنِي فِي ابْنِي فَقَالَ " يَا غُلاَمُ هَذَا أَبُوكَ وَهَذِهِ أُمُّكَ فَخُذْ بِيَدِ أَيِّهِمَا شِئْتَ " . فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ أُمِّهِ فَانْطَلَقَتْ بِهِ .
