607: 3248: Hearts: 1: Ibn Kathir said: As for when the intent behind them [women] is to remain chaste and have many children, then this is a sought-after, desired, and recommended matter, as the Hadiths have come with encouragement for marriage and increasing it. Indeed, the best of this nation is the one with the most women, and his saying, peace and blessings be upon him: "The world is a provision, and the best of its provision is a righteous woman; if he looks at her, she pleases him, if he commands her, she obeys him, and if he is absent from her, she preserves herself and his wealth."
