اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنْ عِشْتُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ زَجَرْتُ أَنْ يُسَمَّى بَرَكَةُ وَيَسَارٌ وَنَافِعٌ قَالَ جَابِرٌ لَا أَدْرِي ذَكَرَ رَافِعًا أَمْ لَا إِنَّهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ هَاهُنَا بَرَكَةُ فَيُقَالُ لَا وَيُقَالُ هَاهُنَا يَسَارٌ فَيُقَالُ لَا قَالَ فَقُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَمْ يَزْجُرْ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَأَرَادَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنْ يَزْجُرَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If I live, God willing, I will prohibit these names: Barakah, Yasar, and Nafi’. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I do not know whether the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the name Rafi’ or not. The reason for prohibiting these names is that when someone asks, “Is Barakah (Blessing) here?” the answer is “No.” Similarly, when someone asks, “Is Yasar (Ease) here?” the answer is “No.” However, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away without prohibiting these names. Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) intended to prohibit them, but later abandoned this intention.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam actually forbade these names, as is evident from the following hadith.
