حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْأَزْرَقُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ تُنْكَحُ عَلَى دِينِهَا ، وَمَالِهَا ، وَجَمَالِهَا ، فَعَلَيْكَ بِذَاتِ الدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ ". قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَاب ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، وَعَائِشَةَ ، وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : حَدِيثُ جَابِرٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
´Jabir narrated that:` The Prophet said: "Indeed the woman is married for her religion, her wealth, and her beauty, so take the one with religion, and may your hands be dusty."

Brief Explanation
1؎ : In the narration of Bukhari and Muslim, four things are mentioned; the fourth thing is her lineage and family nobility.

2؎ : This command has been given because a religious (deendaar) woman is, in the true sense, of good character, obedient to her husband, and loyal, which brings pleasantness to a person's social life, and the offspring raised in her lap also become righteous and religious. In contrast, the other three types of women generally become a source of trouble for a person and a cause of corruption for the children as well.

3؎ : Here, a curse is not intended; rather, the purpose is to encourage striving and making efforts for marriage.
