The Sufficient (Vol 5) · Hadith 1291 (#Ḥadīth #4)

4- أَبَانٌ عَنِ الْوَاسِطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ خَلَقَ آدَمَ مِنَ الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ فَهِمَّةُ ابْنِ آدَمَ فِي الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ وَخَلَقَ حَوَّاءَ مِنْ آدَمَ فَهِمَّةُ النِّسَاءِ فِي الرِّجَالِ فَحَصِّنُوهُنَّ فِي الْبُيُوتِ.

4. Aban has narrated from al-Wasitiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ‘Allah created Adam from water and clay so the ambition of the sons of Adam is in water and clay. He created Eve from Adam so the ambition of women is for men and their fortress is in the houses.’”
