"عَن ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: أَسْلَمَ غَيْلانُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ وَتَحْتَهُ عَشْرَةُ نسْوَةٍ، فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ أَنْ يُمْسكَ أَرْبَعًا، وَيُفَارقَ سَائِرَهُنَّ، قَالَ: وَأَسْلَمَ صَفْوَانُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ وَعِنْدَهُ ثَمَان نسْوَةِ، فَأَمرَهُ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ أَنْ يُمْسِكَ أَرْبَعًا، وَيُفَارقَ سَائِرَهُنَّ".
