Al-Kāfi|Volume 5|Book 3|Chapter 146
4- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) غَيْرَةُ النِّسَاءِ الْحَسَدُ وَالْحَسَدُ هُوَ أَصْلُ الْكُفْرِ إِنَّ النِّسَاءَ إِذَا غِرْنَ غَضِبْنَ وَإِذَا غَضِبْنَ كَفَرْنَ إِلا الْمُسْلِمَاتُ مِنْهُنَّ.
4. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan from Yusuf ibn Hammad from those whom he has mentioned from Jabir who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, has said, ‘Pride of women is jealousy and jealousy is the root of disbelief. When women become jealous they become angry and when they become angry they disbelieve except the Muslim ones among them.’”
