Hadith 9:1246

Khalid ibn Makhlad narrated to us, he said: Muhammad ibn Musa al-Madani narrated to me, he said: Sa’d ibn Ishaq informed me, from his paternal aunt, from Abu Sa’id, he said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: "A woman is married for one of three qualities: a woman is married for her wealth, [and] for her beauty; she is married for her religion. You must seek the one who possesses religion and character; may your hands be covered in dust [if you do not]."

حدثنا خالد بن مخلد قال حدثني محمد بن موسى المدني قال أخبرني سعد بن إسحاق عن عمته عن أبي سعيد قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم تنكح المرأة على إحدى خصال ثلاث تنكح المرأة على مالها على جمالها تنكح على دينها عليك بذات الدين والخلق تربت يمينك
