6183. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ said, [“Do not call (or name) the grapes ‘Al-Karm’]. And they say =of all creation including time.’ One should not attribute anything, whether cheerful or disastrous, to time, for everything is in the Hands of Allāh, and only He is the Disposer of everything. (2) (Ch. 102) The believer’s heart is more entitled to be called Al-Karm which mean ‘the generous’. Al-Karm (the generous), and Al-Karm is only the heart of a believer."

6183 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ المُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَيَقُولُونَ الكَرْمُ، إِنَّمَا الكَرْمُ قَلْبُ المُؤْمِنِ»
