حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَنَادَى رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ، فَالْتَفَتَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ: لَمْ أَعْنِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا عَنَيْتُ فُلَانًا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " تَسَمَّوْا بِاسْمِي، وَلَا تَكَنَّوْا بِكُنْيَتِي " حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ فِي حَدِيثِهِ: " تَسَمَّوْا بِاسْمِي " (٣)،

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (ﷺ) was in Jannat al-Baqi', when a man called out to someone by saying "Abu al-Qasim." The Prophet (ﷺ) turned around and looked back, so the man said, "I did not mean you." Upon this, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Name yourselves after my name, but do not take my kunya (Abu al-Qasim) as your kunya."
