أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي قَدْ وَهَبْتُ نَفْسِي لَكَ فَقَامَتْ قِيَامًا طَوِيلًا فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ زَوِّجْنِيهَا إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ بِهَا حَاجَةٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «هَلْ عِنْدَكَ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ إِزَارِي هَذَا فقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنْ أَعْطَيْتَهَا إِيَّاهُ جَلَسْتَ لَا إِزَارَ لَكَ فَالْتَمِسْ شَيْئًا» قَالَ مَا أَجِدُ شَيْئًا قَالَ «الْتَمِسْ وَلَوْ خَاتَمًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ» فَالْتَمَسَ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ شَيْئًا فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «هَلْ مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ سُورَةُ كَذَا وَسُورَةُ كَذَا لِسُوَرٍ سَمَّاهَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «قَدْ زَوَّجْتُكَهَا عَلَى مَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was approached by a woman who said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have given myself to you.' She stood for a long time, then a man stood up and said: 'Marry her to me if you have no need of her.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Do you have anything?' He said: 'This waist-wrapper of mine.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'If you give it to her, you will sit with no waist-wrapper. Look for something.' He said: 'I find nothing.' He said: 'Look, even if it is an iron ring.' He looked but found nothing. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: 'Do you have anything of the Qur'an?' He said: 'Yes, such-and-such a surah and such-and-such a surah,' for surahs he named. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'I have married you to her for what you have of the Qur'an.'
