Chapter on What a Man Should Do When His Wife is Brought to Him
قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لِبَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ: "إِذَا أُدْخِلَتْ عَلَيْكَ أَهْلُكَ فَخُذْ بِنَاصِيَتِهَا وَ اِسْتَقْبِلْ بِهَا اَلْقِبْلَةَ وَ قُلْ: اَللَّهُمَّ بِأَمَانَتِكَ أَخَذْتُهَا وَ بِكَلِمَاتِكَ اِسْتَحْلَلْتُ فَرْجَهَا فَإِنْ قَضَيْتَ لِي مِنْهَا وَلَداً فَاجْعَلْهُ مُبَارَكاً سَوِيّاً وَ لاَ تَجْعَلْ لِلشَّيْطَانِ فِيهِ شِرْكاً وَ لاَ نَصِيباً ".
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام, said to some of his companions: "When your wife is brought to you, take hold of her forelock, face her toward the Qibla, and say: 'O Allah سبحانه وتعالى, I have taken her with Your سبحانه وتعالى trust, and by Your سبحانه وتعالى words, I have made her lawful for myself. If You سبحانه وتعالى decree for me from her a child, then make him blessed, righteous, and sound, and do not allow Satan to have any share or portion in him.'"
