Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 47, Hadith 267
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas: “All types of women were prohibited for the Messenger of ALlah (ﷺ) except for the believing women among those who emigrated. (Allah) said: ‘It is not lawful for you (to marry other) women after this, nor to change them for other wives even though their beauty attracts you, except those whom your right hand possesses (33:52). – And Allah made your believing girls lawful ‘And a believing woman if she offers herself to the Prophet (33:50)’ and He made every woman of a religion other than Islam unlawful.” Then He said: “And whoever disbelieves in faith then fruitless is his work; and in the Hereafter he will be among the losers (5:5).” And he said: “Verily We have made lawful to you your wives, to whom you have paid their due, and those whom your right hands possess – whom Allah has given you” up to His saying: “A privilege to only you, not for the (rest of) the believers (33:50).” He made the other types of women unlawful.”
