Q
What can be inferred about the simplicity and modesty in Islamic weddings from this narration?
A
`Abdur-Rahman bin `Auf came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and he had marks of Sufra (yellow perfume).
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) asked him (about those marks). `AbdurRahman bin `Auf told him that he had married
a woman from the Ansar. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, “How much Mahr did you pay her?” He said, “I paid
gold equal to the weight of a date stone.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said to him, “Give a wedding banquet, even
if with one sheep.”
