حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الطَّالْقَانِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ الأَنْصَارِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَقِيلُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَهْبٍ الْجُشَمِيِّ، وَكَانَتْ، لَهُ صُحْبَةٌ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ تَسَمَّوْا بِأَسْمَاءِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَأَحَبُّ الأَسْمَاءِ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ وَأَصْدَقُهَا حَارِثٌ وَهَمَّامٌ وَأَقْبَحُهَا حَرْبٌ وَمُرَّةُ ‏"‏ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ ওয়াহব আল-জিশামী (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমরা নবী-রাসূলগণের নামে নামকরণ করো। আল্লাহর নিকট সবচেয়ে পছন্দনীয় নাম হলো আব্দুল্লাহ ও আব্দুর রাহমান। নামের মাঝে হারিস ও হাম্মাম হলো বিশ্বস্ত নাম এবং হারব ও মুররাহ হলো সবচেয়ে নিকৃষ্ট নাম। সহীহ, তার এ কথাটি বাদেঃ ‘‘তোমরা নবী-রাসূলগণের নামে নামকরণ করো।’’
