Hadith 109

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَيَّاشٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ ، وَغَيْرُهُ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، قَالَ : وُلِدَ لِأَخِي أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غُلَامٌ ، فَسَمَّوْهُ : الْوَلِيدَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " سَمَّيْتُمُوهُ بِأَسْمَاءِ فَرَاعِنَتِكُمْ ، لَيَكُونَنَّ فِي هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ : الْوَلِيدُ ، لَهُوَ شَرٌّ عَلَى هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ لِقَوْمِهِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that a boy was born to the brother of Umm al-Mu’minin Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her). They named the child Walid. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You have named this child after the names of your Pharaohs (because Walid bin Mughirah was a leader of the polytheists of Makkah and was very active in persecuting the Muslims). There will be a man in my Ummah whose name will be Walid, who will be even worse for this Ummah than Pharaoh was."
