حَزْنُ بْنُ أَبِي وَهْبٍ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ

[Machine] His grandfather came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him, "What is your name?" He replied, "Hazn." His grandfather wanted to change his name, so he said, "I would not change a name that my father gave me." His grandfather said, "Sa'id." That grief remained in him until the present hour.  

الطبراني:٣٦٠٠ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ثنا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ثنا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ

أَنَّ جَدِّهِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ «مَا اسْمُكَ؟» قَالَ حَزْنٌ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُغَيِّرَ اسْمَهُ فَقَالَ مَا كُنْتُ لِأُغَيِّرُ اسْمًا سَمَّانِي بِهِ أَبِي قَالَ سَعِيدٌ فَتِلْكَ الْحُزُونَةُ فِينَا حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ

ابن حبّان:٥٨٢٢ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي السَّرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لِجَدِّهِ «مَا اسْمُكَ»؟ قَالَ «حَزْنٌ» فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «بَلْ أَنْتَ سَهْلٌ» قَالَ لَا أُغَيِّرُ اسْمًا سَمَّانِيهِ أَبِي قَالَ سَعِيدٌ «فَمَا زَالَتْ فِينَا حُزُونَةٌ بَعْدُ»
