حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ الْفَرَجِ أَبُو الزِّنْبَاعِ قَالَ: نَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ قَالَ: نَا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الْمُزَنِيُّ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ سَوَّارٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ شُرَيْحٍ قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ:
لَا تُغَالُوا بِمُهُورِ النِّسَاءِ، فَإِنَّهَا لَوْ كَانَتْ مَكْرُمَةً فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ كَانَ أَحَقَّكُمْ بِهَا وَأُولَاكُمْ بِهَا مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِهِ، مَا زَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً مِنْ نِسَائِهِ وَلَا زَوَّجَ بِنْتًا مِنْ بَنَاتِهِ بِأَكْثَرَ مِنِ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ وَقِيَّةً

✧ Do not go to excess in the dowries of women, for if it were a source of honor in this world and the next, then the most entitled among you to it and the foremost among you in it would be Muhammad the Messenger of God ﷺ and his family. He did not marry any of his wives or give any of his daughters in marriage for more than twelve uqiyyahs.
