- his lawful wives (bride price paid);
- slave girls (what his right hand possessed);
- daughters of Mohammed's uncles and aunts, both paternal and maternal who had migrated with him;
- any woman believer who she give herself to Mohammed and if Mohammed desire to take her in marriage (Mohammed-only privilege).
You may refuse whichever (of the woman who offer themselves to you) as you want and accept whichever of them you wish. There is no blame on you if you marry (one whom you had refused previously). This would be more delightful for them. They should not be grieved but should be happy with whatever you have given to every one of them. God knows what is in your hearts. God is All-knowing and All-forbearing.
Besides these, other women are not lawful for you to marry nor is it lawful for you to exchange your wives for the wives of others (except for the slave girls), even though they may seem attractive to you. God is watchful over all things. (33:50-52 Muhammad Sarwar version)
