Translation

One of our companions, from Ali Bin Al Husayn Bin Salih Al Taymuly, from Ayoub Bin Nuh, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from a man, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah^asws having said: ‘A man came over to the Prophet^saww, so he said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^saww! With me is a woman of the highest dower of the Arabs, and I would love it if you^saww were to accept her, and she is my daughter’. So he^saww said: ‘I^saww have accepted her’. He said, ‘So (I have) another, O Rasool-Allah^saww!’. He^saww said: ‘And what is she?’ He said, ‘She has not been struck upon her forehead at all (with any hardship)’. He^saww said: ‘There is no need for me regarding her, but marry her to Jilbeeb’. He^asws said: ‘So the legs of the man failed from what entered into him. Then her mother came over, so he informed her of the news, so there entered into her similar to what had entered into him. So the girl heard his speech and saw what had entered into her parents, so she said to them, ‘Be pleased for me with whatever Allah^azwj and His^azwj Rasool^saww are pleased with for me’. He^asws said: ‘So that consoled both of them, and her father came over to the Prophet^saww and informed him^saww of the news. So Rasool-Allah^saww said: ‘I^saww have made her dowry to be the Paradise’. And Safwan (a narrator) has an increased in it saying, ‘So Jilbeeb died from her and her dower reached one hundred thousand Dirhams’.
