عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَادَ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي النَّجَّارِ) فَقَالَ: ((يَا خَالُ! قُلْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ))، فَقَالَ: أَخَالٌ أَمْ عَمٌّ؟ فَقَالَ: ((لَا بَلْ خَالٌ))، قَالَ: فَخَيْرٌ لِي أَنْ أَقُولَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((نَعَمْ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, went to visit a man from the Ansar or Banu Najjar. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him: "Uncle! Say LĀ ILĀHA ILLALLĀH." He said: "Maternal uncle or paternal uncle?" The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, replied: "Not paternal uncle, but maternal uncle." He asked: "Is reciting LĀ ILĀHA ILLALLĀH better for me?" The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Yes."
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam called this person “maternal uncle” because he belonged to the Banu Najjar, and Banu Najjar were the maternal uncles of the Prophet’s sallallahu alayhi wa sallam grandfather, Abdul Muttalib.
