عن عبدالله بن عمرو قال قال رسول الله ﷺ لا تزوجوا النساء لحُسنهن فعسى حسنهن أن يُرديهن ولا تزوجوهن لأموالهن فعسى أموالهن أن تُطغيهن ولكن تزوجوهن على الدين ولأمة خرماء سوداء ذات دين افضل
سنن إبن ماجه كتاب النكاح
From Abdullah ibn ‘Amr who said: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: Do not marry women for their beauty, for perhaps their beauty will destroy them. And do not marry them for their wealth, for perhaps their assets will cause them to transgress. But marry them for their deen [faith, religion]; for indeed even a pierced black slave woman, who has deen, is better.
Sunan Ibn Majah, The book of marital relations
