A man passed by Allahs Messenger (SAW) and Allah?s messenger (SAW) asked (his companions), what do you say about this (man)? They replied, if he asks for a lady's hand he ought to be given her in marriage; and if he intercedes (for someone) his intercession should be accepted; and if he speaks, he should be listened to. Allah?s messenger (SAW) kept silent and then a man from among the poor Muslims passed by , and Allah?s messenger (SAW) asked (then), what do you say about this man? They replied: If he asks for a lady?s hand in marriage, he does not deserve to be married; and if he intercedes ( for someone) his intercession should not be accepted; and if he speaks, he should not be listened to. Allah?s messenger (SAW) said, this poor man is better than so many of the first as filling earth. ( Al-Bukhari)
