The chain of narration for the "If you find a righteous husband, then marry him" is authentic. It indicates that the waiting period () for a pregnant woman whose husband has died ends upon childbirth, and she is permitted to marry thereafter. This narration uniquely contains the Prophet's (peace be upon him) advice to Subai'ah bint al-Harith to be keen on marrying a righteous man.
