Chapter on Marrying a Woman for Her Wealth, Beauty, or Religion

رَوَى هِشَامُ بْنُ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "إِذَا تَزَوَّجَ اَلرَّجُلُ اَلْمَرْأَةَ لِمَالِهَا أَوْ جَمَالِهَا لَمْ يُرْزَقْ ذَلِكَ فَإِنْ تَزَوَّجَهَا لِدِينِهَا رَزَقَهُ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ جَمَالَهَا وَ مَالَهَا ".
Hisham ibn al-Hakam narrated from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام who said: "If a man marries a woman for her wealth or her beauty, he will not be granted that. But if he marries her for her religion, Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty and Glorious, will grant him her beauty and her wealth."
