Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 4775 — on What Has Been Reported Regarding Kunyah
عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كُلُّ نِسَائِكَ لَهَا كُنْيَةٌ غَيْرِي فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ اكْتَنِي أَنْتِ أُمَّ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَفِي لَفْظٍ قَالَ فَتَكَنِّي بِابْنِكِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَكَانَ يُقَالُ لَهَا أُمُّ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى مَاتَتْ وَلَمْ تَلِدْ قَطُّ
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I said to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him): O Messenger of Allah! All your other wives have a kunyah (honorific title), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: You may take the kunyah of Umm Abdullah. In another narration, he said: Take the kunyah after your son Abdullah. Thus, Sayyida Aisha was called Umm Abdullah until her death, even though she had no children.
