3937. Narrated Anas: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: When 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Aūf came to Al-Madīna and the Prophet ﷺ established the bond of brotherhood between him and Sa'd bin Ar-Rabī' Al-Anşārī, Sa'd suggested that 'Abdur- Raḥmān should accept half of his property and family. 'Abdur-Raḥmān said, "May Allāh bless you in your family and property; guide me to the market." So 'Abdur-Raḥmān (while doing trade in the market) made profit of some dry yoghurt and butter. After a few days the Prophet ﷺ saw him wearing clothes stained with yellow perfume. The Prophet ﷺ asked, "What is this, O 'Abdur-Raḥmān?" He said, "O Allāh's Messenger! I have married an Anşārī woman." The Prophet ﷺ asked, "What have you given her as Mahr?" He (i.e., 'Abdur-Raḥmān) said, "A piece of gold, about the weight of a date-stone." Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "Give a Walima party (banquet) even with one sheep."

3937 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَدِمَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ المَدِينَةَ فَآخَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ سَعْدِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ الأَنْصَارِيِّ فَعَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُنَاصِفَهُ أَهْلَهُ وَمَالَهُ، فَقَالَ: عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ فِي أَهْلِكَ وَمَالِكَ دُلَّنِي عَلَى السُّوقِ، فَرَبِحَ شَيْئًا مِنْ أَقِطٍ وَسَمْنٍ، فَرَآهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، بَعْدَ أَيَّامٍ وَعَلَيْهِ وَضَرٌ مِنْ صُفْرَةٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «مَهْيَمْ يَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ؟» قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، تَزَوَّجْتُ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ قَالَ: «فَمَا سُقْتَ فِيهَا؟» فَقَالَ: وَزْنَ نَوَاةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَوْلِمْ وَلَوْ بِشَاةٍ» بَابٌ
