Narrated Sahl Bin Saad AlSaidi: A woman came to Allah Messenger ﷺ and said; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! I have come to give you myself in marriage without Mahr. Allah Messenger ﷺ looked at her. He looked at her carefully and fixed his glance on her and then lowered his head. When the lady saw that he did not say anything; she sat down. A man from his companions got up and said; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! If you are not in need of her; then marry her to me. The Prophet ﷺ said; Have you got anything to offer? The man said; No; by Allah; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! The Prophet ﷺ said to him ; Go to your family and see if you have something. The man went and returned; saying; No; by Allah; I have not found anything. Allah Apostle said; Go again and look for something; even if it is an iron ring. He went again and returned; saying; No; by Allah; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! I could not find even an iron ring; but this is my Izar waist sheet. He had no rida. He added; I give half of it to her. Allah Messenger ﷺ said; What will she do with your Izar? If you wear it; she will be naked; and if she wears it; you will be naked. So that man sat down for a long while and then got up to depart. When Allah Messenger ﷺ saw him going; he ordered that he be called back. When he came; the Prophet ﷺ said; How much of the Quran do you know? He said; I know such Surat and such Sura; counting them. The Prophet ﷺ said; Do you know them by heart? He replied; Yes. The Prophet ﷺ said; Go; I marry her to you for that much of the Quran which you have.
