5- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ حَنَانِ بْنِ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ مِنَ الْقِسْمِ الْمُصْلِحِ لِلْمَرْءِ الْمُسْلِمِ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ إِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا سَرَّتْهُ وَإِذَا غَابَ عَنْهَا حَفِظَتْهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرَهَا أَطَاعَتْهُ.
5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Isma’il ibn Hanan ibn Sadir from his father who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far, Alayhi al-Salam, has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, ‘Of the shares forming the well-being of a Muslim one is a wife who makes him delightful when he looks at her and in his absence protects his interests and obeys his orders.’”
