Hadith 4348
وَعَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: مَنْ تَرَكَ لُبْسَ ثوبِ جمالٍ وَهُوَ يقدرُ عَلَيْهِ وَفِي رَاوِيه: تَوَاضُعًا كَسَاهُ اللَّهُ حُلَّةَ الْكَرَامَةِ وَمَنْ تَزَوَّجَ لِلَّهِ تَوَجَّهُ اللَّهُ تَاجَ الْمُلْكِ . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Suwaid b. Wahb quoted a son of a Companion of God’s messenger who said his father reported God’s messenger as saying, “He who gives up wearing beautiful garments when he is able to do so (out of humility, as is stated in a version) will be clothed by God with the robe of honour, and he who marries for God's sake will be crowned by God with the crown of the kingdom.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.
