1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Muhammad ibn ‘Isma’il from Mansur ibn Yunus from ‘Abd al-Hamid ibn ‘Awwad who has said the following
“This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about forming marriage terms with a woman; if I can go to bed with her without paying her anything in cash of her mahr (dower). He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, you can do so, it is only a debt on you.’”
1- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ يُونُسَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ عَوَّاضٍ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَيَصْلُحُ لِي أَنْ أُوَاقِعَهَا وَلَمْ أَنْقُدْهَا مِنْ مَهْرِهَا شَيْئاً قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّمَا هُوَ دَيْنٌ عَلَيْكَ.

“This is concerning my question before abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about the case of a man who marries a woman for a certain amount of mahr (dower) and goes to bed with her without paying anything. He (the Imam) said, ‘He must pay in advance a little or more unless he has a certain asset which is enough to pay her mahr (dower) in case something happens to him, then it is not unlawful.’”
2- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) الرَّجُلُ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ عَلَى الصَّدَاقِ الْمَعْلُومِ يَدْخُلُ بِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهَا قَالَ يُقَدِّمُ إِلَيْهَا مَا قَلَّ أَوْ كَثُرَ إِلا أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُ وَفَاءٌ مِنْ عَرَضٍ إِنْ حَدَثَ بِهِ حَدَثٌ أُدِّيَ عَنْهُ فَلا بَأْسَ.
