(سَمُّوا بِأَسْمَاءِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلَامُ)
(Name after the names of the Prophets, peace be upon them)
Hadith 4782
وَعَنْ أَبِي وَهَبٍ الْجُشَمِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تَسَمُّوا أَسْمَاءَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَأَحَبُّ الْأَسْمَاءِ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ وَأَصْدَقُهَا حَارِثٌ وهمامٌ أقبحها حربٌ ومُرَّة» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Abu Wahb al-Jushami reports: He said, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Name yourselves after the names of the Prophets. The most beloved names to Allah are Abdullah and Abdur Rahman. The truest names are Harith and Hammam, while the most detestable names are Harb and Murrah." Its chain is weak. Narrated by Abu Dawood.
