Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 3|Book 4|Chapter 25
وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "زَوِّجُوا اَلْأَحْمَقَ وَ لاَ تَزَوَّجُوا اَلْحَمْقَاءَ فَإِنَّ اَلْأَحْمَقَ قَدْ يَنْجُبُ وَ اَلْحَمْقَاءُ لاَ تَنْجُبُ".
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Marry off the foolish man, but do not marry the foolish woman, for the foolish man may produce offspring, whereas the foolish woman does not bear children."
