حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ الْمُعْتَمِرِ، عَنْ هِلاَلِ بْنِ يِسَافٍ، عَنْ رَبِيعِ بْنِ عُمَيْلَةَ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ لاَ تُسَمِّيَنَّ غُلاَمَكَ يَسَارًا وَلاَ رَبَاحًا وَلاَ نَجِيحًا وَلاَ أَفْلَحَ فَإِنَّكَ تَقُولُ أَثَمَّ هُوَ فَيَقُولُ لاَ إِنَّمَا هُنَّ أَرْبَعٌ فَلاَ تَزِيدَنَّ عَلَىَّ ‏"‏ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। সামুরাহ ইবনু জুনদুব (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তুমি তোমার সন্তানের নাম ইয়াসার (সম্পদ), রাবাহ (মুনাফা), নাজীহ (সফল) বা আফলাহা (কৃতকার্য) রাখবে না। কারণ তুমি যখন প্রশ্ন করবে, সে কি এখানে আছে, জবাবদাতা বলবে, না। সামুরাহ (রাঃ) বলেন, চারটি নাম উল্লেখ করা হলো। আমার নিকট এর অতিরিক্ত প্রশ্ন করো না। সহীহ।
