The answer

The text referenced by the questioner is what Abd al-Razzaq narrated from Qatadah, from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab, from Ali, who said: "He is more entitled to her as long as they are in the land of emigration." And another narration from Ali also states: "If a Christian woman or a Jewish man's wife embraces Islam, he is more entitled to her marital rights, because he has a covenant."
