74 - Chapter: On the view that one should not combine both [the Prophet's name and his kunya]

4966 - Muslim ibn Ibrahim narrated to us, Hisham narrated to us, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever is named with my name, let him not use my kunya as his kunya, and whoever uses my kunya as his kunya, let him not be named with my name."(1)

--------------------------------------------

= Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, Muhammad ibn Ja'far ibn Abi Talib, Muhammad ibn Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas, Muhammad ibn al-Ash'ath, and Muhammad ibn Hatib — each of them combined both the name of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and his kunya.

And Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah narrated from 'Ali that he said: O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, what do you think if a child is born to me after you, shall I name him Muhammad and give him your kunya as his kunya? He said: "Yes," and it was a concession for me. We say: It will come with the author at (4967), and will be discussed there. See "Sharh al-Sunnah" 12/331-332 and "Sharh Muslim" 14/95-96.

(1) A sound hadith, and Abu al-Zubayr — whose name is Muhammad ibn Muslim — although he did not explicitly state that he heard it [directly], has been corroborated. And Hisham: he is Ibn Abi 'Abdullah al-Dastawa'i.

It was also recorded by al-Tirmidhi (3054) via the path of al-Husayn ibn Waqid, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, and he mentioned it.

It is in "Musnad Ahmad" (14357), and "Sahih" Ibn Hibban (5816).

And the author mentioned, following the preceding hadith at number (4965), other paths for the hadith from Jabir, and this is their takhrij: As for the narration of Abu Sufyan from Jabir, it was recorded by Ibn Majah (3736), and it is in "al-Musnad" (14364).

The narration of Salim ibn Abi al-Ja'd from him was recorded by al-Bukhari (3114), (3115), (3538), (6187), and (6196), and Muslim (2133) (3, 4, 5, 6, and 7). It is in "Musnad Ahmad" (14183) and (14227).

The narration of Sulayman al-Yashkuri from him was recorded by Ibn Sa'd in "al-Tabaqat" 1/107.

The narration of Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir from him was recorded by al-Bukhari (6186) and (6189), and Muslim (2133) (7), and it is in "al-Musnad" (14357).

And what precedes it bears witness to it.
