Al-Lu'lu Wal-Marjan 899 — The Book of Hajj (Pilgrimage to Makka)

About Mahr (marriage bridal money given by the husband to the wife). It may be little or more; even if an iron ring or for a portion of the Qur'ân which one may know by heart etc. And preference of being 500 Dirham for the one who does not want to wrong anybody.

Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 899

حديث أَنَسٍ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، رَأَى عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ ⦗٩٥⦘ أَثَرَ صُفْرَةٍ قَالَ: مَا هذَا قَالَ: إِنِّي تَزَوَّجْتُ امْرَأَةً عَلَى وَزْنِ نَوَاةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، قَالَ: بَارَكَ اللهُ لَكَ، أَوْلِمْ وَلَوْ بِشَاةٍ.

Narrated Anas رضى الله عنه : The Prophet ﷺ saw the traces of Sufra (yellow perfume) on 'Abdur-Rahmân bin 'Aûf and said, "What is this?" 'Abdur-Rahmân said, "I have married a woman, and have paid gold equal to weight of a date-stone (as her Mahr ). The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "May Allāh bless you. Offer a wedding banquet even with one sheep." ( Sahih Al-Bukhārī, Hadīth No. 85, Vol. 7)
