Chapter on What Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty, Has Made Permissible and Prohibited in Marriage
وَ رَوَى يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ بَشَّارٍ اَلْوَاسِطِيِّ قَالَ: كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّ لِي قَرَابَةً قَدْ خَطَبَ إِلَيَّ اِبْنَتِي وَ فِي خُلُقِهِ سُوءٌ فَقَالَ "لاَ تُزَوِّجْهُ إِنْ كَانَ سَيِّئَ اَلْخُلُقِ".
Yaqub ibn Yazid narrated from Al-Husayn ibn Bashshar Al-Wasiti, who said: I wrote to Abu Al-Hasan Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha عليه السلام saying: "I have a relative who has proposed to my daughter, but he has bad character." Imam عليه السلام replied: "Do not marry her to him if he has bad character."
