[Machine] The son of Abu Layla was commanded by the Prophet ﷺ to select four of them, and Al-Kalbi said: Al-Harith said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have embraced Islam and I have eight women who have embraced Islam with me and migrated with me." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Choose four of them." So I started saying to the ones I wanted to keep, "Accept it" and to the ones I wanted to separate from, "Turn away." He said, "Then she would say, 'I ask you by the womb, I ask you by the child.'" Al-Kalbi said: Abu Salih narrated from Al-Harith bin Qais similar to that.
ابْنُ أَبِي لَيْلَى فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَخْتَارَ مِنْهُنَّ أَرْبَعًا وَقَالَ الْكَلْبِيُّ قَالَ الْحَارِثُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ أَسْلَمْتُ وَعِنْدِي ثَمَانِ نِسْوَةٍ أَسْلَمْنَ مَعِي وَهَاجَرْنَ مَعِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اخْتَرْ مِنْهُنَّ أَرْبَعًا فَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ لِلَّتِي أُرِيدُ إِمْسَاكَهَا أَقْبِلِي وَلِلَّتِي أُرِيدُ فِرَاقَهَا أَدْبِرِي قَالَ فَتَقُولُ أَنْشُدُكَ الرَّحِمَ أَنْشُدُكَ الْوَلَدَ قَالَ الْكَلْبِيُّ وَثَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ
