Chapter on the Blessing and Omen of a Woman

قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع‌ مِنْ بَرَكَةِ الْمَرْأَةِ خِفَّةُ مَئُونَتِهَا وَ تَيْسِيرُ وِلَادَتِهَا وَ مِنْ شُؤْمِهَا شِدَّةُ مَئُونَتِهَا وَ تَعْسِيرُ وِلَادَتِهَا.

Hadith.4359 - It is narrated from Abdullah ibn Bukayr, from Muhammad ibn Muslim, that Abu Abdillah (as) said: "Among the blessings of a woman are the lightness of her expenses and the ease of her childbirth. And among her misfortunes are the heaviness of her expenses and the difficulty of her childbirth."

رُوِيَ‌ أَنَّ مِنْ بَرَكَةِ الْمَرْأَةِ قِلَّةَ مَهْرِهَا وَ مِنْ شُؤْمِهَا كَثْرَةَ مَهْرِهَا.

Hadith.4360 - It is narrated: "Among the blessings of a woman is the smallness of her dowry, and among her misfortunes is the largeness of her dowry."

تَزَوَّجُوا الزُّرْقَ فَإِنَّ فِيهِنَّ الْبَرَكَةَ[3]

Hadith.4361 - The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "Marry women with blue eyes, for indeed there is blessing in them."
