- (إن عشتُ- إن شاء اللهُ- زجرتُ أن يُسمَّى: بركة، ونافعاً، وأفلح، فلا أدري قال: أفلح أولا، فقُبضَ النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - ولم يزجُر عن ذلك) .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "If Allah wills and I remain alive, I will prohibit these names: Barakah, Nafi‘, and Aflah." I do not know whether he (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned "Aflah" or not. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away and he had not prohibited these names.
