What is the meaning of the Prophet's saying, peace and blessings be upon him: "So, win the one who is religious, otherwise you will be a loser"? And is there a Hadith stating that "Whoever marries a woman for her beauty, Allah will increase him in poverty, and whoever marries a woman for her status, Allah will increase him in abasement"?
Marrying a woman for reasons other than her religious commitment may lead to an outcome contrary to what is desired. This is because the hadith that narrates a warning for those who marry a woman for her wealth, beauty, or lineage is weak; it is considered very weak, and some scholars have even categorized it among the fabricated hadiths.
