4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Nawfali from al-Sakuni who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah (saww) has said, ‘The best of the women of my followers are those who have a beautiful face and the least amount of Mahr (dowry).’”
4- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) أَفْضَلُ نِسَاءِ أُمَّتِي أَصْبَحُهُنَّ وَجْهاً وَأَقَلُّهُنَّ مَهْراً.
