5- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْبَرْقِيِّ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَالنَّصْرَانِيَّةِ أَيَتَزَوَّجُهَا الرَّجُلُ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمَةِ قَالَ لا وَيَتَزَوَّجُ الْمُسْلِمَةَ عَلَى الْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَالنَّصْرَانِيَّةِ.

5. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Khalid al-Barqiy from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from Sama‘ah ibn Mehran who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before him (the Imam) , if one can marry a Jewish or a Christian woman as a second wife, the first being a Muslim woman. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, but a Muslim woman can become a second wife, the first being a Jewish or a Christian woman.’”
