Sunan an-Nasai 3246 (Book 26, Hadith 51) #17858
Looking Before Marrying

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad advised a man from the Ansar to look at his wife before marrying her.

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "A man of the Ansar came to the Messenger of Allah and said: 'I have married a woman'. He said: 'Did you look at her? For there is something in the eyes of the Ansar'."
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ آدَمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ هَاشِمِ بْنِ الْبَرِيدِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي تَزَوَّجْتُ امْرَأَةً ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏ "‏ أَلاَ نَظَرْتَ إِلَيْهَا فَإِنَّ فِي أَعْيُنِ الأَنْصَارِ شَيْئًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَجَدْتُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ أَنَّ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَ وَالصَّوَابُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of looking at one's spouse before marriage. The Prophet Muhammad advised a man from the Ansar to look at his wife before marrying her. This advice was given because there is something special in the eyes of the people of Ansar that can be seen when they are looked upon. It teaches us that we should take our time and get to know our potential spouses before making any commitments or decisions regarding marriage. We should also be aware of any physical or mental traits that may not be suitable for us in order for us to make an informed decision about who we choose as our life partner. Furthermore, it encourages us to seek advice from those around us who have more experience and knowledge than ourselves when it comes to matters such as marriage and relationships.
