Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · Chapter on the Categories of Women
رُوِيَ عَنْ مَسْعَدَةَ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "اَلنِّسَاءُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَصْنَافٍ فَمِنْهُنَّ رَبِيعٌ مُرْبِعٌ وَ مِنْهُنَّ جَامِعٌ مُجْمِعٌ وَ مِنْهُنَّ كَرْبٌ مُقْمِعٌ وَ مِنْهُنَّ غُلٌّ قَمِلٌ".
Mas'adah ibn Ziyad narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s) (peace be upon them) that he said: "Women are of four types, there are those who are like a fertile spring, those who are abundant and productive, those who are burdensome and oppressive, and those who are like a shackle infested with lice."
