Hadith 1284
۞
10. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah al-Barqiy from al-Hassan ibn abu Qatadah from a man from Jamil ibn Darraj who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘The most enjoyable thing people experience in this world and in the hereafter is enjoyment with women and it is in the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, ‘The love and enjoyment for women and children is made attractive for people.’ (3:13) He (the Imam) then said, ‘People of paradise will not enjoy from anything else as much as they will with marriage, but not from food or drink.’”
10- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ الْبَرْقِيِّ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) مَا تَلَذَّذَ النَّاسُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ بِلَذَّةٍ أَكْثَرَ لَهُمْ مِنْ لَذَّةِ النِّسَاءِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ زُيِّنَ لِلنَّاسِ حُبُّ الشَّهَواتِ مِنَ النِّساءِ وَالْبَنِينَ إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَإِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ مَا يَتَلَذَّذُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ أَشْهَى عِنْدَهُمْ مِنَ النِّكَاحِ لا طَعَامٍ وَلا شَرَابٍ.
