حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ
أَنَّ الْأَشْعَثَ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً عَلَى حُكْمِهَا فَسَأَلَهُ عُمَرُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ: بِتُّ بِلَيْلَةٍ لَا يَعْلَمُهَا إِلَّا اللهُ، مَخَافَةَ أَنْ تَحْكُمَ عَلَيَّ فِي مَالِ قَيْسٍ فَقَالَ: لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ لَهَا إِنَّمَا لَهَا مَهْرُ نِسَائِهَا

That al-Ashʿath married a woman on the condition that she would decide her own dowry. ʿUmar asked him about her, and he said: "I spent a night that none knows except Allah, fearing that she would rule against me regarding the wealth of Qays." He said: "That is not hers to decide. She is only entitled to the dowry of her peers (the women of her family)."
