adab:844

Abu Hurayra said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade for someone to have both his name and his kunya. He said, 'I am Abu'l-Qasim. Allah gives and I distribute.'"

الأدب المفرد:٨٤٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ عَجْلاَنَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ نَجْمَعَ بَيْنَ اسْمِهِ وَكُنْيَتِهِ وَقَالَ أَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ وَاللَّهُ يُعْطِي وَأَنَا أَقْسِمُ
