3115. Narrated Jābir bin ‘Abdullāh Al-Anṣārī: رضي الله عنهم: A man amongst us begot a boy whom he named Al-Qāsim. On that the Anṣār said, (to the man), “We will never call you Abūl-Qāsim and will never please you with this blessed title.” So, he went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! I have begotten a boy whom I named Al-Qāsim and the Anṣār said, ‘We will never call you Abūl-Qāsim, nor will we please you with this title.’” The Prophet ﷺ said, “The Anṣār have done well. Name by my name, but do not name by my Kunya,(1) for I am Qāsim.”

3115 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الجَعْدِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ: وُلِدَ لِرَجُلٍ مِنَّا غُلاَمٌ فَسَمَّاهُ القَاسِمَ، فَقَالَتِ الأَنْصَارُ لاَ نَكْنِيكَ أَبَا القَاسِمِ، وَلاَ نُنْعِمُكَ عَيْنًا، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وُلِدَ لِي غُلاَمٌ، فَسَمَّيْتُهُ القَاسِمَ فَقَالَتِ الأَنْصَارُ: لاَ نَكْنِيكَ أَبَا القَاسِمِ، وَلاَ نُنْعِمُكَ عَيْنًا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَحْسَنَتِ الأَنْصَارُ، سَمُّوا بِاسْمِي وَلاَ تَكَنَّوْا بِكُنْيَتِي، فَإِنَّمَا أَنَا قَاسِمٌ»
