[5603] 13 - (2138) Abū Az-Zubair narrated that Jābir bin 'Abdullāh said: “The Prophet ﷺ wanted to forbid using the names Ya'lā (elevated), Barakah (blessing), Aflāh (successful), Yasār (wealth), Nāfi' (beneficial) etc., then I saw that he remained quiet about them after that and did not say anything. Then the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ passed away without having forbidden that. Then 'Umar wanted to forbid that but then he did not.”
13 - (2138) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَلَفٍ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ، يَقُولُ: «أَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَنْهَى عَنْ أَنْ يُسَمَّى بِيَعْلَى، وَبِبَرَكَةَ، وَبِأَفْلَحَ، وَبِيَسَارٍ، وَبِنَافِعٍ وَبِنَحْوِ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُهُ سَكَتَ بَعْدُ عَنْهَا، فَلَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَمْ يَنْهَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ» ثُمَّ أَرَادَ عُمَرُ أَنْ يَنْهَى عَنْ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ "
