1382 صحيح حديث جَابِرٍ رضي الله عنه، قَالَ: وُلِدَ لِرَجُلٍ مِنَّا غُلاَمٌ، فَسَمَّاهُ الْقَاسِمَ، فَقُلْنَا: لاَ نَكْنِيكَ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ، وَلاَ كَرَامَةَ فَأَخْبَرَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ: سَمِّ ابْنَكَ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمنِ
Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that a child was born to one of us, and he named him "Qasim." We said to him, "We will not call you Abu al-Qasim (the father of Qasim), because Abu al-Qasim was the kunyah (patronymic) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), nor will we do so out of respect for you." That person informed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about this, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Name your son Abdur-Rahman."
