حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيٌّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدٌ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسًا ؓ قَالَ
سَأَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ وَتَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ كَمْ أَصْدَقْتَهَا قَالَ وَزْنَ نَوَاةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ

When ʿAbdur-Rahman bin ʿAuf married an Ansari woman, the Prophet ﷺ asked him, "How much Mahr did you give her?" ʿAbdur-Rahman said, "Gold equal to the weight of a date stone." Anas added: When they (i.e. the Prophet ﷺ and his companions) arrived at Medina, the emigrants stayed at the Ansar's houses. ʿAbdur-Rahman bin ʿAuf stayed at Saʿd bin Ar-Rabi's house. Saʿd said to ʿAbdur- Rahman, "I will divide and share my property with you and will give one of my two wives to you." ʿAbdur-Rahman said, "May Allah bless you, your wives and property (I am not in need of that; but kindly show me the way to the market)." So ʿAbdur-Rahman went to the market and traded there gaining a profit of some dried yoghurt and butter, and married (an Ansari woman). The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Give a banquet, even if with one sheep."
