4482 - وَ رَوَى اَلْعَلاَءُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ تَكُونُ عِنْدَهُ اِمْرَأَتَانِ إِحْدَاهُمَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ اَلْأُخْرَى قَالَ لَهُ "أَنْ يَأْتِيَهَا ثَلاَثَ لَيَالٍ وَ اَلْأُخْرَى لَيْلَةً فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَ أَرْبَعَ نِسْوَةٍ كَانَ لِكُلِّ اِمْرَأَةٍ لَيْلَةٌ فَلِذَلِكَ كَانَ لَهُ أَنْ يُفَضِّلَ بَعْضَهُنَّ عَلَى بَعْضٍ مَا لَمْ يَكُنَّ أَرْبَعاً".
Hadith.4482 - Al-Alaa narrated from Muhammad ibn Muslim, who said:
I asked him about a man who has two wives, one of whom is more beloved to him than the other. Imam 
said: "He may spend three nights with her and one night with the other. However, if he wishes to marry four wives, then each wife is entitled to one night. Therefore, it is permissible for him to prefer some of them over others as long as they are not four."
