" عَنْ إِيَاسِ بْنِ عَامٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَلىَّ بْنَ أَبِى طالِبٍ فَقُلتُ: إِن لِى أُخْتَيْنِ مِمَّا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينِى، اتَّخَذْتُ إِحْداهُمَا سُرِّيَّةً وَوَلَدَتْ لِى أَوْلاَدًا، ثُمَّ رَغِبْتُ فِى الأُخْرَى فَمَا أَصْنعُ؟ قالَ: تَعْتِقُ التى كُنْتَ تَطَأُ، ثُمَّ تَطأُ الأُخْرَى، ثُمَّ قَالَ: إِنَّهُ يَحْرُمُ عَلَيْكَ مِمَّا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُكَ مَا يَحْرُمُ عَلَيْكَ فِى كتَابِ الله مِنَ النَّسَبِ".

" From Iyas ibn 'Amir, he said: I asked 'Ali ibn Abi Talib, and I said: 'I have two sisters from among those my right hand possesses. I took one of them as a concubine, and she bore me children. Then I desired the other, so what should I do?' He said: 'Free the one you were having intercourse with, then have intercourse with the other.' Then he said: 'What is forbidden to you of those your right hand possesses is what is forbidden to you in the Book of Allah by way of lineage.'"
