أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ الْفَقِيهُ بِبَغْدَادَ ثَنَا هِلَالُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ الرَّقِّيُّ ثَنَا أَبِي ثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ
أَنَّهُ سَمَّى ابْنَهُ الْأَكْبَرَ بِاسْمِ عَمِّهِ حَمْزَةَ وَسَمَّى حُسَيْنًا بِعَمِّهِ جَعْفَرٍ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلِيًّا فَقَالَ «إِنِّي قَدْ أَمَرْتُ أَنْ أُغَيِّرَ اسْمَ هَذَيْنِ» فَقَالَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ فَسَمَّاهُمَا حَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا
