When searching for a wife the most important principle one has to understand is that whatever pleases you about a woman will suffice. There are further clarifications in Islam on what are the qualities you should be looking for in a wife. This is one of the rights of your children upon you that you choose a good mother for them. Below is a breakdown of what to look for and they are explained by a collection of Ahadeeth.A Righteous Muslim WomanFour qualities women are married for and which one to look for as a priority;Abu Hurairah may Allah be pleased with him reported that the Prophet SAW said: “A woman is sought in marriage for four reasons; wealth, social status, beauty and deen (piety). So seek the one with deen – may you then be successful.” (recorded in Bukhari & Muslim)The Prophet SAW also said: “The best property a man can have is a remembering tongue (about Allah), a grateful heart and a believing wife who helps him in his faith.” And again: “The world, the whole of it, is a commodity and the best of the commodities of the world is a virtuous wife.”A woman that brings happiness or misery;Sa’ad bin Abi Waqas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Prophet SAW said: “There are four sources of happiness and four sources of misery.Among the sources of happiness are:1. A good wife who pleases you when you look at her; and when you are away from her, you trust her in regards to herself and your property.2. An easy ride that enables you to catch up with you companions.3. A house that is spacious and of many facilities.4. A good neighbor.And the sources of misery are:1. An evil wife who dismays you when you look at her, who uses her tongue against you, and who, when you are away from her, you would not trust her in regard to herself or your property.2. A stubborn ride that if you whip it would tire you, and if you leave it alone you would not be able to catch up with your companions.3. A tight house of limited facilities.4. An evil neighbor.
