حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ عَنْ رَبِيعِ بْنِ عَمِيلَةَ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ قَالَ

أَحَبُّ الْكَلَامِ إِلَى اللهِ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] أَرْبَعٌ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلهِ، لَا يَضُرُّكَ بِأَيِّهِنَّ بَدَأْتَ، لَا تُسَمِّيَنَّ غُلَامَكَ يَسَارًا وَلَا رَبَاحًا وَلَا نَجِيحًا وَلَا أَفْلَحًا، فَإِنَّكَ تَقُولُ: أَثَمَّ هُوَ ؟ فَلَا يَكُونُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَا، إِنَّمَا هُنَّ أَرْبَعٌ لَا تَزِيدُنَّ عَلَيَّ

✧ The most beloved speech to Allah [Blessed and Exalted is He] is four: La ilaha illa Allah (There is no god but Allah), Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest), Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah), and Al-hamdu lillah (Praise be to Allah). It does not harm you with whichever of them you begin. Do not name your boy Yasar, Rabah, Najih, or Aflah, for you will say, 'Is he there?' and he will not be, and he will say, 'No.' They are only four, so do not add to them for me.
