Imam Ali (AS) said, 'Be on your guard against evil women and be wary of even the best of them; if they enjoin you to do good, go against them and do the opposite so that they abandon all hope of your obeying them in doing evil.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): اِتَّقُوا شرارَ النساءِ وكُونُوا مِن خِيارِهِنَّ عَلى حَذَرٍ ، إن أمَرنَكُم بالمَعروفِ فَخالِفُوهُنَّ كَي لا يَطمَعْنَ مِنكُم في المُنكَرِ .
