وعن علقمة عن ابن مسعود : أنه سئل عن رجل تزوج امرأة ولم يفرض لها صداقا ، ولم يدخل بها ، حتى مات ؟ فقال ابن مسعود : لها مثل صداق نسائها ، لا وكس ، ولا شطط ، وعليها العدة ، ولها الميراث ، فقام معقل بن سنان الأشجعي ، فقال : قضى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم في بروع بنت واشق امرأة منا مثل ما قضيت ، ففرح بها ابن مسعود . رواه أحمد والأربعة ، وصححه الترمذي ، وحسنه جماعة.
Narrated 'Alqamah on the authority of Ibn Mas'ud (RA): He was asked about a man who had married a woman and had not fixed a dowry for her. And he did not consummate (the marriage) with her till he died. Ibn Mas'ud replied, "She should receive a dowry similar to what the women of her community receive without decrease or increase. She must observe the 'Iddah period (of waiting before re-marrying and is entitled to a share of the inheritance." Ma'qil bin Sinan al-Ashja'i then got up and said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ruled the same as your ruling regarding Birwa', daughter of Washiq, a woman of our tribe." Ibn Mas'ud was delighted with it. [Reported by Ahmad and al-Arba'a. at-Tirmidhi graded it Sahih (authentic), while a group (of Hadith scholars) graded it Hasan (good)].
