Sunan Abi Dawud 4778 (Book 43, Hadith 6) #25069
The Rewards of Humility and Marrying for Allah's Sake

SUMMARY: Humility and marrying for Allah's sake will be rewarded by Allah with security, faith, a robe of honour and a crown of kingdom.

Suwaid b. Wahb quoted a son of a Companion of the Prophet who said his father reported the Messenger of Allah said: He then mentioned a similar tradition described above. This version has: Allah will fill his heart with security and faith. He did not mention the words "Allah will call him". This version further adds: He who gives up wearing beautiful garments when he is able to do so (out of humility, as Bishr's version has) will be clothed by Allah with the robe of honour, and he who marries for Allah's sake will be crowned by Allah with the crown of Kingdom.
حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ مُكْرَمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَهْدِيٍّ - عَنْ بِشْرٍ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَنْصُورٍ - عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ - قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ نَحْوَهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ مَلأَهُ اللَّهُ أَمْنًا وَإِيمَانًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ قِصَّةَ ‏"‏ دَعَاهُ اللَّهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ زَادَ ‏"‏ وَمَنْ تَرَكَ لُبْسَ ثَوْبِ جَمَالٍ وَهُوَ يَقْدِرُ عَلَيْهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ بِشْرٌ أَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ تَوَاضُعًا كَسَاهُ اللَّهُ حُلَّةَ الْكَرَامَةِ وَمَنْ زَوَّجَ لِلَّهِ تَعَالَى تَوَّجَهُ اللَّهُ تَاجَ الْمُلْكِ
