Bayhaqi 13985 — Collected chapters on marrying the free women
وَبِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ثنا يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ زَيْدَ بْنَ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: " إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ يَنْكِحُ النَّصْرَانِيَّةَ، وَلَا يَنْكِحُ النَّصْرَانِيُّ الْمُسْلِمَةَ ".
Zayd bin Wahb said that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote a letter (saying) that a Muslim may marry a Christian woman, whereas a Christian man may not marry a Muslim woman.
