Sahih Muslim 1427c (Book 16, Hadith 94) #10629
Celebrating Small Occasions

SUMMARY: Allah's Apostle encourages people to celebrate even the smallest of occasions.

Anas b. Malik (Allah be pleased with him) reported that 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Auf (Allah be pleased with him) married a woman for a date-stone's weight of gold and Allah's Apostle said to him: Hold a wedding feast, even if only with a sheep.
وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، وَحُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ، تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً عَلَى وَزْنِ نَوَاةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ قَالَ لَهُ ‏ "‏ أَوْلِمْ وَلَوْ بِشَاةٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Celebrate small occasions with generosity & kindness

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about celebrating small occasions, such as a marriage, even if it is with a small gift or token like a sheep. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ encouraged people to celebrate these moments and make them special, no matter how small they may be. He taught us that we should not underestimate the importance of these moments in our lives and that we should take time out of our day to appreciate them and make them memorable for ourselves and those around us. This hadith also teaches us the importance of being generous with others, even if it is something as simple as providing food for a wedding feast or giving someone a token gift on their special day. It reminds us that no matter how little we have, there are always ways to show kindness towards others and make their days brighter.
