adab:844

Abu Hurayra said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ 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
