The Noble Scholar Shaykh Sulaymān Ar-Ruhaylī حفظه الله stated:

“Wealth and beauty do not benefit when confronting the burdens of marital life. Rather, it’s a must that there be religiosity and good character. That’s because the path of marital life is long and in need of religiosity and good character between the two spouses in order to last.”

[Muhādharah Haqq Az-Zawjayn]

kThe Prophet ﷺ said to Sabī’ah bint Al-Hārith رضي الله عنها:

“If you find a righteous man, marry him!”

[As-Silsilah As-Sahīhah #2722]

Benefits:

1. Virtues of a righteous man. 2. A woman should not marry just any one. 3. The concern of the Prophet ﷺ for the women.

Ibn Shubrumah رحمه الله stated:

“I’m amazed at the people who stay away from (eating certain) food out of fear of sickness but don’t stay away from (committing) sins out of fear of the hellfire.”

[Siyar A’lām An-Nubalā 6/348]
