Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 32560 — Reports on talk about rulers
٣٢٥٦٠ - حدثنا ابن علية عن ابن عون عن محمد قال: قال الوليد بن عقبة وهو يخطب: يا أهل الكوفة أعزم على من (سماني) (١) (أشعر بركًا) (٢) لما قام، (فتحرج) (٣) عدي من (عزمته) (٤) فقام فقال له: إنه (لذو ندبة) (٥) الذي يقوم فيقول: أنا الذي سميتك.
It is narrated from Muhammad (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna al-Walid bin Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said during a sermon: O people of Kufah! I make it binding upon whoever gave me the name "the one with the thick chest hair" to stand up. Sayyiduna Adi (may Allah be pleased with him) was troubled by this binding oath, so he stood up and said to him: Whoever stands up and admits, 'I gave you this name,' will surely bear a scar.
