Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: When Sayyiduna Ghailan bin Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) accepted Islam, he had ten wives from the time of ignorance, and those women also accepted Islam with him. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed him: "He should choose four of them." The narrator named Ramadi states: The people of Basra have narrated it in the same way.
