When we arrived in Medina, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ established a bond of brotherhood between me and Saad bin Rabi.Saad bin Rabi said, "I am among the wealthiest of the Ansar, so I will divide my wealth in half and give you a share. Look at my two wives, choose whichever one you prefer, and I will divorce her for you. Once her waiting period is complete, you may marry her."Abdul-Rahman replied, "I have no need for that. Is there a marketplace here where trade is conducted?"Saad answered, "The market of Qaynuqa."The next morning Abdul-Rahman went to the market and came back with curd and clarified butter. He continued going there regularly, and before long he appeared with traces of yellow perfume on him.The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "Have you gotten married?"He said, "Yes."The Prophet asked, "To whom?"He replied, "A woman from the Ansar."The Prophet asked, "How much did you give as dowry?"He said, "The weight of a date stone in gold," or "a date stone of gold."The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Hold a wedding feast, even if only with a single sheep."
لما قدمنا المدينة آخى رسول الله ﷺ بيني وبين سعد بن الربيع، فقال سعد بن الربيع: إني أكثر الأنصار مالا، فأقسم لك نصف مالي، وانظر أي زوجتي هويت، نزلت لك عنها، فإذا حلت تزوجتها، قال: فقال له عبد الرحمن: لا حاجة لي في ذلك، هل من سوق فيه تجارة؟ قال: سوق قينقاع، قال: فغدا إليه عبد الرحمن، فأتى بأيط وسمن، قال: ثم تابع العدو، فما لبث أن جاء عبد الرحمن عليه أثر صفرة، فقال رسول الله ﷺ: تزوجت؟ قال: نعم قال: ومن؟ قال: امرأة من الأنصار. قال: كم سقت؟ قال: زنة نواة من ذهب أو نواة من ذهب. فقال له النبي ﷺ: أولم ولو بشاء
