629/814(صحيح دون جملة الأنبياء)- عن أبي وهب [الجشمي] – وكانت له صحبة – عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: "تسموا بأسماء الأنبياء. وأحب الأسماء إلى الله عز وجل: عبد الله، وعبد الرحمن، وأصدقها حارث، وهمّام، وأقبحها: حربٌ: حربٌ، ومرّة".
629/814 (Authentic except for the phrase "the prophets") - From Abu Wahb [الجشمي] – and he had companionship – from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "Name yourselves with the names of the prophets. The most beloved names to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, are: Abdullah and Abdur-Rahman. The truest of them are Harith and Hammam, and the ugliest of them are: Harb: Harb, and Murrah."
