حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَنْعُمَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " إِنَّمَا الدُّنْيَا مَتَاعٌ ، وَلَيْسَ مِنْ مَتَاعِ الدُّنْيَا شَيْءٌ أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْمَرْأَةِ الصَّالِحَةِ " .

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.' ”
Hadith 1857
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاتِكَةِ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ : " مَا اسْتَفَادَ الْمُؤْمِنُ بَعْدَ تَقْوَى اللَّهِ خَيْرًا لَهُ مِنْ زَوْجَةٍ صَالِحَةٍ ، إِنْ أَمَرَهَا أَطَاعَتْهُ ، وَإِنْ نَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا سَرَّتْهُ ، وَإِنْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَيْهَا أَبَرَّتْهُ ، وَإِنْ غَابَ عَنْهَا نَصَحَتْهُ فِي نَفْسِهَا ، وَمَالِهِ " .
´It was narrated from Abu Umamah that:` the Prophet used to say: “Nothing is of more benefit to the believer after Taqwa of Allah than a righteous wife whom, if he commands her she obeys him, if he looks at her he is pleased, if he swears an oath concerning her she fulfills it, and when he is away from her she is sincere towards him with regard to herself and his wealth.”
