Chapter on the Recommended and Praiseworthy Traits and Characteristics of Women

قَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "تَزَوَّجْ سَمْرَاءَ عَيْنَاءَ عَجْزَاءَ مَرْبُوعَةً فَإِنْ كَرِهْتَهَا فَعَلَيَّ اَلصَّدَاقُ".
Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام said: "Marry a woman who is dark-skinned, wide-eyed, full-figured, and of medium height. If you dislike her, then I will bear the dowry."
