Information for "MuwataMalik-017-001-35312"

Yahya related to me from Malik from Malik from Abu Hazim Ibn Dinar from Sahl Ibn Sad AlSaidi that a woman came to the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; and said; Messenger of Allah! I have given myself to you. She stood for a long time; and then a man got up and said; Messenger of Allah; marry her to me if you have no need of her. The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; Do you have anything to give her as a bride-price? He said; I possess only this lower garment of mine. The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; If you give it to her you will not have a garment to wear so look for something else. He said; I have nothing else. He said; Look for something else; even if it is only an iron ring. He looked; and found that he had nothing. The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; Do you know any of the Quran? He said; Yes. I know such-and-such a Surat and such-and-such a sura; which he named. The Messengerof Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said to him; I have married her to you for what you know of the Quran.
