2106. Abū Al-'Ajfā' As-Sulamī narrated that 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb once delivered a sermon in which he said: "Verily, do not make women's dowries expensive, for had this been a means of praise in this world, or a means of pleasing Allāh, then the first person that would have done so would have been the Prophet ﷺ. But the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not give any of his wives more than twelve Uqiyah as dowry, nor was the dowry for any of his daughters more than that." (Ḥasan)
2106 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَجْفَاءِ السُّلَمِيِّ، قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا عُمَرُ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ، فَقَالَ: «أَلَا لَا تُغَالُوا بِصُدُقِ النِّسَاءِ، فَإِنَّهَا لَوْ كَانَتْ مَكْرُمَةً فِي الدُّنْيَا، أَوْ تَقْوَى عِنْدَ اللَّهِ لَكَانَ أَوْلَاكُمْ بِهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَا أَصْدَقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ امْرَأَةً مِنْ نِسَائِهِ، وَلَا أُصْدِقَتْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنَاتِهِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ثِنْتَيْ عَشْرَةَ أُوقِيَّةً»
