Chapter: The guardian – Permitting the ruler to marry off a woman with no guardian to a suitable man, even without a specified dowry
1 hadith
Hadith 4072
Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best marriage is the one which is easiest for a man." The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said to a man: Are you pleased that I marry you to such-and-such woman? He said: Yes. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the woman: Are you pleased that I marry you to such-and-such man? The woman replied: Yes. So the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) married her to him. He did not fix any dowry. The woman was sent to her husband's house and the man did not give her anything. When the man was near death, he said: Indeed, the Messenger of Allah married me to such-and-such woman and I did not give her any dowry. I give her my share in Khaybar.
