حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَكِيمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ تُنْكَحُ النِّسَاءُ لأَرْبَعٍ لِمَالِهَا وَلِحَسَبِهَا وَلِجَمَالِهَا وَلِدِينِهَا . فَاظْفَرْ بِذَاتِ الدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ ‏"‏ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ হুরাইরাহ (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেনঃ চারটি বিষয় বিবেচনায় রেখে মহিলাদের বিবাহ করা হয়। তার সম্পদ, তার বংশ মর্যাদা, তার রূপ-সৌন্দর্য এবং তার ধর্মপরায়ণতা। অতএব তুমি ধর্মপরায়ণা নারীর সন্ধান করো। অন্যথায় তোমার দু’ হাত ধূলি ধুসরিত হোক।
