Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al hakam, from Al A’ala Bin Razeyn, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far^asws having said: ‘A woman came over to the Prophet^saww, so she said, ‘Get me married’. So Rasool-Allah^saww said: ‘Who is for this one?’ So a man stood up and he said, ‘I will marry her, O Rasool-Allah^saww!’ So he^saww said: ‘What will you give her?’ So he said, ‘There is nothing for me’. So he^saww said: ‘No’. He^asws said, ‘So she re-iterated, and Rasool-Allah^saww repeated the speech. But, no one stood up apart from that man. Then she re-iterated. So Rasool-Allah^saww said during the third time: ‘Are you good with anything from the Quran?’ He said, ‘Yes’. So he^saww said: ‘I^saww hereby marry the two of you upon a (dower of) whatever you are good at from the Quran, so you will teach her it’.
