Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Abu Saeed, who was the freed slave of Abu Usaid, narrates: I got married while I was still a slave. So I invited a group from among the companions of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), among whom were Hazrat Abu Mas’ud, Hazrat Abu Dharr, Hazrat Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with them), and others. These people taught me etiquette and said: When your wife comes to you, then perform two units of prayer. And ask Allah for goodness in her coming to you. Then seek Allah’s protection from her evil. After that, it is between you and your wife.
