Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ لَيْثٍ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَضْلُ نِسَاءِ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ عَلَى الْقَاعِدِينَ فِي الْحُرْمَةِ كَفَضْلِ أُمَّهَاتِهِمْ وَمَا مِنْ
قَاعِدٍ يَخْلُفُ مُجَاهِدًا فِي أَهْلِهِ فَيُخَبِّبُ فِي أَهْلِهِ إِلَّا وَقَفَ لَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ هَذَا خَانَكَ فِي أَهْلِكَ فَخُذْ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ مَا شِئْتَ قَالَ فَمَا ظَنُّكُمْ

English Translation
It was narrated from Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The superiority in sanctity of the wives of the mujahidin over those who stay behind is like the superiority of their own mothers. There is no man who stays behind and corrupts a mujahid's family but that on the Day of Resurrection it will be said to the mujahid: "This man betrayed you in your family — take from his deeds whatever you wish."' He said: 'So what do you think?'
