حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ، عَنْ رَبِيعِ بْنِ عُمَيْلَةَ الْفَزَارِيِّ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَحَبُّ الْكَلَامِ إِلَى اللهِ أَرْبَعٌ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ، لَا يَضُرُّكَ بِأَيِّهِنَّ بَدَأْتَ "، " وَلَا تُسَمِّيَنَّ غُلَامَكَ يَسَارًا، (٢) وَلَا رَبَاحًا، وَلَا نَجِيحًا، وَلَا أَفْلَحَ،، ، فَإِنَّكَ تَقُولُ: أَثَمَّ هُوَ، فَلَا يَكُونُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَا "، إِنَّمَا هُنَّ أَرْبَعٌ فَلَا تَزِيدُنَّ عَلَيَّ (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: The four most beloved words to Allah are: La ilaha illallah, Allahu Akbar, Subhan Allah, and Alhamdulillah. You may begin with any of them, there is no harm in it. And do not name your children Aflah (successful), Najeeh (prosperous), Yasar (ease), or Rabah (profit), because when you call them by name and ask if they are here, people will say, "No, he is not here." These are four things; do not add anything to them.
