3353. It was narrated from Anas bin Mâlik that 'Abdur-Rahmân bin 'Awf came to the Prophet ﷺ with traces of yellow perfume on him. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ asked him (about that) and he told him that he had married a woman from among the Anshâr. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "How much did you give her?" He said: "A Nawâh (five Dirhams) of gold." The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Give a Walimah (wedding feast) even if it is with one sheep." (Sahih)
3351 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ، قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ وَاللَّفْظُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبِهِ أَثَرُ الصُّفْرَةِ، فَسَأَلَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّهُ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كَمْ سُقْتَ إِلَيْهَا؟» قَالَ: زِنَةَ نَوَاةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَوْلِمْ وَلَوْ بِشَاةٍ»

1. 'He married a woman from Al-Anshâr': Some of the saffron or the like which she was wearing, got on him. 2. "Nawâh" was a weight of gold. Its value was three or according to some people, five dirhams. In other words, the dower could be that amount.
