30. hadíth

وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "خَيْرُ نِسَائِكُمُ اَلطَّيِّبَةُ اَلرِّيحِ اَلطَّيِّبَةُ اَلطَّعَامِ، اَلَّتِي إِنْ أَنْفَقَتْ أَنْفَقَتْ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَ إِنْ أَمْسَكَتْ أَمْسَكَتْ بِمَعْرُوفٍ فَتِلْكَ مِنْ عُمَّالِ اَللَّهِ وَ عَامِلُ اَللَّهِ لاَ يَخِيبُ".

Imam (a.s) said: "The best of your women is the one who has a pleasant fragrance and prepares good food, who spends appropriately if she spends, and who withholds appropriately if she withholds. Such a woman is among the workers of Allah (swt), and the worker of Allah (swt) will never fail."
