(7) Rayhana: Jewish. (Some say she was only a concubine and some say she never converted to Islam.) (8) Zeynab: Pagan. (9) Juwairiya: Pagan. (Some say her clan had converted to a form of Judaism.) (10) Ramla: Pagan. (11) Safiya: Jewish. (12) Maymuna: Pagan. (13) Mariya: Coptic, a branch of Christianity (recognised as valid by the other branches). (Some say she was only a concubine.)
