[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married Umm Salamah, and when she came to him, he said to her, "There is no blame on you with regard to your family. If you wish, I will stay with you for seven days and stay with them for seven days. And if you wish, I will stay with you for three days." Then she said, "Three days." And in another narration of Al-Shafi'i, she said, "Three days, and then stay with them."
