٢٨٣٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ ‌وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ‌وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ ، عَنْ ‌عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ ‌نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «غَيَّرَ اسْمَ عَاصِيَةَ» وَقَالَ: أَنْتِ جَمِيلَةُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَإِنَّمَا أَسْنَدَهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ مُرْسَلًا. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُطِيعٍ، وَعَائِشَةَ، وَالْحَكَمِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، وَمُسْلِمٍ، وَأُسَامَةَ بْنِ أَخْدَرِيٍّ، وَشُرَيْحِ بْنِ هَانِئٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَخَيْثَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ.

Commentary

'Āsiyah' means 'disobedient'; therefore it is not suitable for a Muslim; such names that point out ugly and disliked meanings or are polytheistic should be changed.
