[Machine] I went to the Prophet ﷺ and saw them calling me by the name of my father Al-Hakam. So he said, "Indeed, Allah is the Judge, so why are you called by the name of your father Al-Hakam?" I said, "If there is any dispute among my people and they come to me to resolve it, I give a judgment that they accept." He said, "And do you have any children?" I said, "Yes." He said, "What is the name of your eldest son?" I said, "Shurayh." He said, "Then you are Abu Shurayh (the father of Shurayh)."
وَفَدْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَرَآهُمْ يُكَنُّونِي بِأَبِي الْحَكَمِ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ هُوَ الْحَكَمُ لِمَ تُكَنَّى بِأَبِي الْحَكَمِ؟» قُلْتُ إِذَا كَانَ بَيْنَ قَوْمِي شَيْءٌ تَحَاكَمُوا إِلَيَّ فَحَكَمْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ رَضُوا بِحُكْمِي قَالَ «وَمَا لَكَ مِنْ وَلَدٍ؟» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَمَا اسْمُ أَكْبَرِهِمْ؟» قُلْتُ شُرَيْحٌ قَالَ «فَأَنْتَ أَبُو شُرَيْحٍ»
