EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of marriage and how it should not be based on materialistic things. 'Abd al-Rahman married a woman for a datestone weight of gold, which is an example of how marriage should not be done. Instead, marriage should be based on love and respect between two people who are willing to commit to each other for life. It is important to remember that money and possessions do not make a successful marriage; rather, it takes commitment, understanding, and mutual respect in order for a couple to have a successful relationship.
