Primary text

If a marriage contract is concluded with two women at the same time (two female slaves, or a free woman and a slave woman under the permissible view), the contract is valid for both. This is because contracting marriage with each one individually is permissible, thus combining them is also permissible, similar to marrying two female slaves.
