4. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Safmah ibn al-Khattab from Sulayman ibn Sama‘ah from al-Hadhdha’ from his uncle, ‘Asem from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who said
“The Messenger of Allah (sw) has said, ’Women are of four kinds: Goodness in all respects, a child bearing fountain, a dimwitted destructive one and feed for parasites.”’
4- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ سَمَاعَةَ عَنِ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) النِّسَاءُ أَرْبَعٌ جَامِعٌ مُجْمِعٌ وَرَبِيعٌ مُرْبِعٌ وَخَرْقَاءُ مُقْمِعٌ وَغُلٌّ قَمِلٌ.
