عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ :
كَانَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَتَفَاءَلُ وَلَا يَتَطَيَّرُ ، وَيُعْجِبُهُ الِاسْمُ الْحَسَنُ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ لَيْثُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ بِغَيْرِ كَذِبٍ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would take a good omen, but he would not take a bad omen, and he liked a good name.
Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Layth bin Abi Sulaym, who is da'if (weak) without being a liar.

Hadith Takhrij «اخرجه الطبراني فى المعجم الكبير (11294) اخرجه احمد فى المسند (2927 و 2328 و 2767) ، أخرجه مسند أحمد برقم: 2324»
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ قَالَ :
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِذَا سَأَلَ عَنِ اسْمِ الرَّجُلِ وَكَانَ حَسَنًا ، عُرِفَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ كَرِهَهُ ، فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِالْقَرْيَةِ سَأَلَ عَنِ اسْمِهَا ، فَإِنْ كَانَ اسْمُهَا حَسَنًا سُرَّ بِذَلِكَ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ رُئِيَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ وَالْأَوْسَطِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرَ سَعِيدِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ وَفِيهِ ضَعْفٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Shikhkhir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked a man's name and it was good, the pleasure could be recognised in his face; and if it was otherwise, he disliked it. When he halted at a town, he would ask its name. If its name was good, he was pleased with that, and if it was otherwise (that is, bad), that could be seen in his face.
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Sa'id bin Bashir, who is thiqah (trustworthy) but has some weakness.

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ :
" إِنَّ مِنْ حَقِّ الْوَلَدِ عَلَى الْوَالِدِ أَنْ يُحْسِنَ اسْمَهُ ، وَأَنْ يُحْسِنَ أَدَبَهُ " .
رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ ، وَفِيهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيُّ وَهُوَ مَتْرُوكٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Among the rights of the child upon the father is that the father give him a good name and raise him with good manners."

Hadith Takhrij «اخرجه البزار فى المسند (1984)»
وَعَنْهُ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - :
" إِذَا أَبْرَدْتُمْ إِلَيَّ بَرِيدًا ، فَابْعَثُوهُ حَسَنَ الْوَجْهِ حَسَنَ الِاسْمِ " .
رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِي إِسْنَادِ الطَّبَرَانِيِّ عُمَرُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ ، وَثَّقَهُ الْعِجْلِيُّ وَضَعَّفَهُ جُمْهُورُ الْأَئِمَّةِ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ ، وَطَرِيقُ الْبَزَّارِ ضَعِيفَةٌ .
It is reported from him that he narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you send a messenger to me, send someone whose face is good and whose name is good."
Imam al-Bazzar and Imam al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat recorded it. The chain of Imam al-Tabarani contains Umar bin Rashid, whom al-Ijli declared thiqah (trustworthy) while the majority of the imams declared him da'if (weak). The remaining narrators of this report are thiqat (trustworthy), and the route of Imam al-Bazzar is da'if (weak).

A man said: "I will." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is your name?" He said: "Murrah (meaning: bitter)." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sit down."

Hadith Takhrij «اخرجه الطبراني فى المعجم الكبير (277/22)»
وَعَنْ أَبِي حَدْرَدٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ :
" مَنْ يَسُوقُ إِبِلَنَا هَذِهِ ؟ " - أَوْ : " مَنْ يُبَلِّغُ إِبِلَنَا هَذِهِ ؟ " - فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا اسْمُكَ ؟ " قَالَ : فُلَانٌ . قَالَ : " اجْلِسْ " . ثُمَّ قَامَ آخَرُ ، فَقَالَ : أَنَا . قَالَ : " مَا اسْمُكَ ؟ " . قَالَ : نَاجِيَةُ . قَالَ : " أَنْتَ لَهَا ، فَسُقْهَا " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ مِنْ طَرِيقِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ ، وَلَمْ أَرَ فِيهِمَا جَرْحًا وَلَا تَعْدِيلًا ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hadrad (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Who will drive these camels of ours?" (The narrator is in doubt; perhaps the words are:) "Who will take our camels (to their destination)?" A man stood up. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: What is your name? He replied: So-and-so. He said: Sit down. Then another man stood up and said: I will do it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: What is your name? He replied: Najiyah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You will do this task; take them.
Al-Tabarani recorded it through Ahmad bin Bashir from his paternal uncle, and I have not found any jarh (criticism) or ta'dil (accreditation) regarding either of them. The rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
