حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل بْنِ سَمُرَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ ، عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا نَزَلَ فِي الْفِضَّةِ وَالذَّهَبِ مَا نَزَلَ ، قَالُوا : فَأَيَّ الْمَالِ نَتَّخِذُ ؟ ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : فَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ لَكُمْ ذَلِكَ ، فَأَوْضَعَ عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ ، فَأَدْرَكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَنَا فِي أَثَرِهِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَيَّ الْمَالِ نَتَّخِذُ ؟ ، فَقَالَ : " لِيَتَّخِذْ أَحَدُكُمْ قَلْبًا شَاكِرًا ، وَلِسَانًا ذَاكِرًا ، وَزَوْجَةً مُؤْمِنَةً تُعِينُ أَحَدَكُمْ عَلَى أَمْرِ الْآخِرَةِ " .
´It was narrated that:` Thawban said: “When the Verse concerning silver and gold was revealed, they said: 'What kind of wealth should we acquire?' Umar said: 'I will tell you about that.' So he rode on his camel and caught up with the Prophet, and I followed him. He said: 'O Messenger of Allah what kind of wealth should we acquire?' He said: 'Let one of you acquire a thankful heart, a tongue that remembers Allah and a believing wife who will help him with regard to the Hereafter.' ”

Brief Explanation
1؎: A woman's assistance in matters of the Hereafter is that, due to her, a man is protected from sins and from casting unlawful glances, and she takes care of all the household tasks, thereby giving the man the opportunity to engage in worship. If there were no woman and he had to do these tasks himself, it would be difficult for him to find time for worship. Some women themselves are pious and religious; through the effect of their company, the man also becomes ascetic and devoted to worship. Some women wake their husbands for the tahajjud (late night) prayer.

“And those who hoard gold and silver and do not spend it in the way of Allah, give them glad tidings of a painful punishment.”
