He stays as long as God wills. If God conceals him, he leaves as he entered. If he is discovered, he is killed. He is only discovered through various means. One is when a wife informs one of her co-wives, who then searches for him. She might find him by pretending to be a servant or by him going to her place in the field, where she can then find him. Another means is when the Sultan orders a search. All the eunuchs are brought, and the houses are searched. Whoever is found is killed. Another means is when he becomes weary from staying too long and leaves alone. He is then discovered by the guards as he is leaving and is killed. If God conceals him, he leaves. Most of those who enter in the aforementioned manner do not leave except at night, accompanied by many women, with him in the midst of them. Those who are concerned about women leaving the Sultan's house arrange for each woman to be accompanied by a young man who pretends to be her servant. They then leave. If the guard or one of the eunuchs questions them, they are told, "This is a woman of the Sultan's household who entered with us seeking a favor." Some women are aided by the eunuchs in their escape. This only happens if the eunuch knows that he has been appeased. If a passage is opened for him, he is taken by force, and the woman enters and leaves, and whoever she wishes enters and leaves without any difficulty. This happened with some of the Sultan's guards, such as Sabun, with Kad bin.
