Narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa’d Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) that a woman came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I offer myself to you. Then she stood for a long time. Meanwhile, a man stood up and said: O Messenger of Allah! If you have no need of her, then marry her to me. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do you have anything to give her as a dowry? He said: I have only this lower garment. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If you give her this lower garment, you yourself will be left without a lower garment. Go and find something else. He said: I have nothing else. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Search, even if it is an iron ring. He searched, but could not find anything. Finally, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Do you know any portion of the Qur’an by heart? He said: Yes, such and such surahs. He also mentioned the names of those surahs. Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Whatever portion of the Qur’an you know by heart, I have married you to this woman in exchange for that. In another narration it is stated: Whatever portion of the Qur’an you know by heart, I have made you the owner of this woman in exchange for that. Then I saw that man walking away and his wife was following behind him.
