(قلت: إسناده ضعيف؛ لعنعنة أبي الزبير، وجهالة ابنِ رُومان، والصواب
في اسمه: صالح بن مسلم بن رُومان، أخطأ فيه يزيد: وهو ابن هارون. وخالفه
عبد الرحمن بن مهدي فرواه عنه بإسناده عن جابر موقوفاً. ورواه أبو عاصم عنه
بلفظ: " كنا على عهد رسول الله صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نستمتع بالقبْضةِ من الطعام ... على
معنى المتعة ". وهو الصواب؛ لأنه تابعه ابن جريح عن أبي الزبير به، وقد
أوردته في الكتاب الآخر [برقم (١٨٣٧) ] )

2110. It was reported from Mūsā bin Muslim Ibn Rūmān, from Abū Az-Zubair, from Jābir bin 'Abdullāh, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever gives as dowry to a woman a cupped hand's worth of barley or dates has made her permissible." (Da'if)
Abū Dāwud said: 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Mahdī reported it from Ṣāliḥ bin Rūmān, from Abū Az-Zubair, from Jābir in Mawqūf form. And Abū 'Āšim reported it from Ṣāliḥ bin Rūmān, from Abū Az-Zubair, from Jābir; he said: "During the lifetime of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, we would engage in Mut'ah marriages in exchange for only a handful of food (as dowry)."
Abū Dāwud said: Ibn Juraij reported it from Abū Az-Zubair, from Jābir similar to the meaning of Abū 'Āšim.

[1] He explained that, and Nawāh is literally a "date-stone" so its name was also used for an amount of weight.
Commentary
Temporary marriage (Mut'ah) was permissible but banned later. The Hadīth appears to date back to the time before it was prohibited permanently.
