Q
What is the significance of knowing the Qur’an in the context of marriage proposals?


A

A woman came to the Prophet,, and presented herself to him (for marriage). He said, “I am not in need
of women these days.” Then a man said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Marry her to me.” The Prophet (ﷺ) asked
him, “What have you got?” He said, “I have got nothing.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Give her something,
even an iron ring.” He said, “I have got nothing.” The Prophet (ﷺ) asked (him), “How much of the Qur’an
do you know (by heart)?” He said, “So much and so much.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “I have married her to
you for what you know of the Qur’an.”
