[Machine] "And Al-Ahnaf ibn Qais ibn Husayn ibn Nazzal ibn Ubaydah al-Mukhadram met the Prophet ﷺ and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ directed his attention towards him, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made a supplication for him, saying, 'And the name of Al-Ahnaf is Adh-Dhahhak, and it is said that his name is Sakhir ibn Qais ibn Mu'awiya ibn Husayn. He was born while his father was called Ahnaf.' So his mother said, 'By Allah, if it weren't for him having Ahnaf in his foot, there wouldn't be a boy as intelligent as him in the whole tribe of the Arabs.'"  

وَالْأَحْنَفُ بْنُ قَيْسِ بْنِ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ النَّزَّالِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ مُخَضْرَمٌ أَدْرَكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَوَجَّهَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَدَعَا لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «وَاسْمُ الْأَحْنَفِ الضَّحَّاكُ وَيُقَالُ صَخْرُ بْنُ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ وُلِدَ وَهُوَ أَحْنَفُ» فَقَالَتْ أُمُّهُ وَاللَّهِ لَوْلَا حْنَفٌ فِي رِجْلِهِ مَا كَانَ فِي الْحَيِّ غُلَامٌ مِثْلَهُ وَكَانَ أَحْلَمَ الْعَرَبِ
