English translation
2117. 'Uqbah bin 'Āmir narrated that the Prophet ﷺ told a man: "Are you satisfied if I marry you to so-and-so?" He said: "Yes." And he asked the woman: "Are you satisfied if I marry so-and-so to you?" She replied: "Yes." So they were married to one another, and the man consummated the marriage without specifying the dowry amount, and he did not give her anything (as dowry). He had participated during Al-Hudaibiyyah — and everyone who had participated in Al-Hudaybiyyah had been allocated a share of (the produce of) Khaibar. So when he was about to die, he said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ married me to so-and-so, and I did not specify her dowry, nor did I give her anything, so I call you to witness that I have given her as dowry my share of Khaibar.' So she sold her share for a hundred thousand." Abū Dāwūd said: In the beginning of the Hadīth, 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb added — and his narration is more complete: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The best marriage is the easiest one." And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to the man..." and he quoted its meaning. Abū Dāwūd said: It is feared that this Hadīth may have an addition in it, for this was not the case.
