"عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: مَنْ تَزَوَّجَ بِنْتَ عَشْرٍ تَسُرُّ النَّاظِرِينَ، وَمَنْ تَزَوَّجَ بِنْتَ عِشْرِينَ لَذَّةٌ لِلمُعَانِقِينَ، وَبِنْتَ ثَلَاثِينَ تَسْمَنُ وتَلِينُ، وَمَنْ تَزَوَّجَ ابْنَةَ أَرْبَعينَ ذَاتُ بَنَاتٍ وَبَنِينَ، وَمَنْ تَزَوَّجَ ابْنَةَ خَمْسِينَ عَجُوزٌ فِى الْغَابِرِينَ".

"On the authority of Khalid ibn al-Muhajir who said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said: Whoever marries a girl of ten, she delights the beholders; whoever marries a girl of twenty, she is a pleasure for the embracers; and a girl of thirty, she grows plump and soft; and whoever marries a girl of forty, she has many sons and daughters; and whoever marries a girl of fifty, she is an old woman among those who remain behind."
