The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The Dunya (worldly life); all of it is a fleeting enjoyment, and the best of the fleeting enjoyments of the Dunya is a righteous woman.”
Saheeh Muslim (no.1467) and the wording is from Saheeh al-Jaami as-Sagheer wa Ziyaadah no. 3413
Shaykh al-Uthaymeen rahimahullaah mentions:
So his (ﷺ) statement: “The Dunya is a fleeting enjoyment.” Meaning a thing that one benefits from and enjoys (i.e. utilises) just like a traveller utilises and benefits from his provisions and then it ends (i.e. it is temporary). And the best of these temporary enjoyments and provisions (that one enjoys and benefits from) is a righteous woman. If a person is given the success and ability to have a woman who is Saalihah (righteous and sound) in her religion and her intellect then this is the best of the transitory enjoyments and provisions of the life of this world. That is because she will safeguard and protect his secrets, his wealth and his children. And if she is sound in her intellect then she will be able to organise and manage his house in a good manner, and likewise the cultivation of her children. When he looks at her she pleases him, if he is away from her she safeguards herself for him, and if he entrusts her with something she will not betray him. So this woman is the best of the fleeting and temporary enjoyments and provisions of the worldly life.
For this reason the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said: “A woman is married for four reasons: for her wealth, her lineage, her beauty and her religion. So get (married to) the one with the religion, may your hands be covered with dust.” Meaning upon you is to marry her (the religious one) because she is the best a man can marry. The one with the religion even if she is not beautiful in appearance, but her manners and her religion will beautify her. So get married to the one with the religion, may your hands be covered with dust.
