Hadith 971

Narrated Abu Hurairah (RA): The Prophet (SAW) said, "A woman is married for four qualities, for her wealth, her family status, her beauty and her religion: so get the religious one and prosper." [Agreed upon, with the rest of the as-Sab'a].

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ‏- رضى الله عنه ‏- عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-قَالَ : { تُنْكَحُ اَلْمَرْأَةُ لِأَرْبَعٍ : لِمَالِهَا , وَلِحَسَبِهَا , وَلِجَمَالِهَا , وَلِدِينِهَا , فَاظْفَرْ بِذَاتِ اَلدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ } مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ مَعَ بَقِيَّةِ اَلسَّبْعَةِ <sup>1</sup>‏ .‏
