[5591] 5 - (...) It was narrated that Jābir bin 'Abdullāh said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'You may call yourselves by my name but do not call yourselves by my Kunyah, for I am Abul-Qāsim, I distribute (Allāh's blessings) among you.'"

5 - (2133) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، ح وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْأَشَجُّ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تَسَمَّوْا بِاسْمِي، وَلَا تَكَنَّوْا بِكُنْيَتِي، فَإِنِّي أَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ أَقْسِمُ بَيْنَكُمْ» وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَلَا تَكْتَنُوا
