[3489] 78 - (1426) It was narrated that Abû Salamah bin 'Abdur-Raḥmân said: "I asked ‘Aîshah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ: ‘How much was the dowry of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ?’ She said: ‘The dowry that he gave to his wives was twelve Uqiyah and a Nashsh.’ She said: ‘Do you know what a Nashsh is?’ I said: ‘No.’ She said: ‘Half an Uqiyah; and that (the whole amount) was equal to five hundred Dirham. That was the dowry of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ to his wives.’”

٧٨ - (١٤٢٦) حدثنا إِسْحَاقَ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. أَخْبَرَنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ. حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ الْهَادِ. ح وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ ابن أَبِي عُمَرَ الْمَكِّيُّ (وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ). حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ؛ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: كَمْ كَانَ صَدَاقُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَت: كَانَ صَدَاقُهُ لِأَزْوَاجِهِ ثِنْتَيْ عَشْرَةَ أُوقِيَّةً وَنَشًّا. قَالَت: أَتَدْرِي ما النش؟ قال: قلت: نصف أوقية. قتلك خمسمائة دِرْهَمٍ. فَهَذَا صَدَاقُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأَزْوَاجِهِ.
