البزّار:٩٦٦٦ – حدثنا بشر بن آدم قالَ حَدَّثَنا أبو عاصم قالَ حَدَّثَنا عبد الله بن المؤمل قال حدثني ابن أبي مليكة عن عائشة ؓ

قالت رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مصباحا في بيت الزبير فقال يا عائشة أظن أسماء قد نفست فلا تسموه حتى أسميه فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فسماه وحنكه بتمرة وهذا الحديث لا نعلمه يُرْوَى عن عائشة ؓ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ

tirmidhi:3826 – ʿAbdullāh b. Isḥāq al-Jawharī > Abū ʿĀṣim > ʿAbdullāh b. al-Muʾammal > Ibn Abū Mulaykah > ʿĀʾishah

from 'Aishah, that the Prophet ﷺ saw a lamp in the house of Az-Zubair, so he said: "O 'Aishah, I do not think except that Asma has given birth, so do not name him until I should name him." So he named him 'Abdullah, and he (performed Tahnik) with a date that was in his hand.

الترمذي:٣٨٢٦ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُؤَمَّلِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَأَى فِي بَيْتِ الزُّبَيْرِ مِصْبَاحًا فَقَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ مَا أُرَى أَسْمَاءَ إِلاَّ قَدْ نَفِسَتْ فَلاَ تُسَمُّوهُ حَتَّى أُسَمِّيَهُ فَسَمَّاهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ وَحَنَّكَهُ بِتَمْرَةٍ بِيَدِهِ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ
