Sayyiduna Abu Hadrad al-Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to seek his help in paying a woman's dowry. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "How much dowry have you set for her?" He said: "Two hundred dirhams." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Even if you were scooping it out of Buthan, you would not give more."
Imam Ahmad recorded it, and Imam al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; the narrators of Imam Ahmad are the narrators of the Sahih.
