Piety – The Key to Success in a Marriage
عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال تنكح المرأة لأربع لمالها ولحسبها وجمالها ولدينها فاظفر بذات الدين تربت يداك (صحيح بخاري #5090)
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) narrates that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “A woman is (generally) married for four (qualities); her wealth, her status, her beauty and her Deen.
