In the Quran

عَسَىٰ رَبُّهُۥٓ إِن طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَن يُبْدِلَهُۥٓ أَزْوَٰجًا خَيْرًۭا مِّنكُنَّ مُسْلِمَٰتٍۢ مُّؤْمِنَٰتٍۢ قَٰنِتَٰتٍۢ تَٰٓئِبَٰتٍ عَٰبِدَٰتٍۢ سَٰٓئِحَٰتٍۢ ثَيِّبَٰتٍۢ وَأَبْكَارًۭا

اگر پیغمبر تم کو طلاق دے دیں تو عجب نہیں کہ ان کا پروردگار تمہارے بدلے ان کو تم سے بہتر بیبیاں دے دے۔ مسلمان، صاحب ایمان فرمانبردار توبہ کرنے والیاں عبادت گذار روزہ رکھنے والیاں بن شوہر اور کنواریاں

It may happen that his Lord, if he divorce you, will give him in your stead wives better than you, submissive (to Allah), believing, pious, penitent, devout, inclined to fasting, widows and maids.
