حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: نَادَى رَجُلٌ: يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ، فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَمْ أَعْنِكَ إِنَّمَا دَعَوْتُ فُلَانًا، قَالَ: " تَسَمَّوْا بِاسْمِي، وَلَا تَكَنَّوْا بِكُنْيَتِي " (٢)،

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 "Abul Qasim." The Prophet (ﷺ) turned around and looked back, so the man said, "I did not mean you." Upon this, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You may name yourselves after my name, but do not take my kunya (Abul Qasim) as your kunya."
