Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 2347 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When one
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، قَالَ : نَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْخَبَائِرِيُّ قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْعُكَّاشِيُّ قَالَ : نَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْلَةَ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أُمَّ الدَّرْدَاءِ ، تُخْبِرُ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِذَا كَتَبَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى إِنْسَانٍ فَلْيَبْدَأْ بِاسْمِهِ ، وَإِذَا كَتَبَ فَلْيُتَرِّبْ كِتَابَهَ ، فَهُوَ أَنْجَحُ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you writes a letter to someone, let him begin with his own name, and when he has written it, let him sprinkle dust on his letter, for that is more effective (for success and achieving the purpose)."
