كَانَ يَقُولُ لَنَا إِنَّ اسْمَ الرَّجُلِ الْكَرْمُ مِنْ أَجْلِ مَا كَرَّمَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى الْخَلِيقَةِ إِنَّكُمْ تَدْعُونَ الْعِنَبَ وَإنَّما اسْمُهُ الجوهر هو الرجل وهُو الْكَرْمُوَهَذَا الْكَلامُ قَدْ رُوِيَ مَعْنَاهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم وَأَمَّا لَفْظُ الْحَدِيثِ فَلا نَعْلَمُ رَوَاهُ إلاَّ سَمُرة بهذا الإسناد

tabarani:7087 – Samurah b. Jundub

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say to us, "Indeed, the name of a believing man in the Divine books is a reflection of the honor with which Allah has honored him among creation. And you call the wall of grapes 'al-Karm', whereas its name is actually 'al-Hafr'. As for a man, he is 'al-Karm'."

الطبراني:٧٠٨٧ – وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ قَالَ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَنَا «إِنَّ اسْمَ الرَّجُلِ الْمُؤْمِنِ فِي الْكُتُبِ الْكَرْمُ مِنْ أَجْلِ مَا كَرَّمَهُ اللهُ عَلَى الْخَلِيقَةِ وَإِنَّكُمْ تَدْعُونَ الْحَائِطَ مِنَ الْعِنَبِ الْكَرْمَ وَإِنَّمَا اسْمُهُ الْحَفْرُ وَالرَّجُلُ هُوَ الْكَرْمُ»
