Bayhaqi 14334 — There is no fixed limit to the dowry, whether much

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ، بِبَغْدَادَ، أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ دُرُسْتَوَيْهِ، ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ هُوَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، أنبأ مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَحْتَ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جَحْشٍ، وَكَانَ رَحَلَ إِلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ، فَمَاتَ، وَأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَزَوَّجَ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ وَأَنَّهَا ⦗٣٨٠⦘ لَبِأَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ، زَوَّجَهَا إِيَّاهُ النَّجَاشِيُّ وَمَهَرَهَا أَرْبَعَةَ آلَافٍ ثُمَّ جَهَّزَهَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ فَبَعَثَ بِهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَعَ شُرَحْبِيلَ ابْنِ حَسَنَةَ وَجِهَازُهَا كُلُّهُ مِنْ عِنْدِ النَّجَاشِيِّ وَلَمْ يُرْسِلْ إِلَيْهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَيْءٍ، وَكَانَ مُهُورُ أَزْوَاجِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْبَعَمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ ".
Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sayyidah Umm Habibah (may Allah be pleased with her) that she was married to Ubaydullah bin Jahsh. When he emigrated towards Abyssinia, he died there. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) married Umm Habibah (may Allah be pleased with her) while she was in the land of Abyssinia; al-Najashi carried out this duty, and her dower was four thousand. Al-Najashi prepared her from his own side and sent Umm Habibah (may Allah be pleased with her) to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with Shurahbil bin Hasanah (may Allah be pleased with him). All of her belongings were from al-Najashi; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) paid nothing from his own side. And the dowers of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were four hundred dirhams.
