حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانَ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ عِيسَى الرَّمْلِيُّ التَّمِيمِيُّ ثنا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ قَالَ قَالَ
عَلِيٌّ ؓ كُنْتُ رَجُلًا أُحِبُّ الْحَرْبَ فَلَمَّا وُلِدَ الْحَسَنُ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أُسَمِّيَهُ حَرْبًا فَسَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْحَسَنَ فَلَمَّا وُلِدَ الْحُسَيْنُ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أُسَمِّيَهُ حَرْبًا فَسَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْحُسَيْنَ وَقَالَ ﷺ «إِنِّي سَمَّيْتُ ابْنَيَّ هَذَيْنِ بِاسْمِ ابْنَيْ هَارُونَ شَبَرَ وَشُبَيْرَ»

✧ Ali ؓ said: I was a man who loved war. When al-Hasan was born, I wanted to name him Harb, but the Messenger of God ﷺ named him al-Hasan. When al-Husayn was born, I wanted to name him Harb, but the Messenger of God ﷺ named him al-Husayn, and he ﷺ said, 'I have named these two sons of mine after the two sons of Aaron: Shabar and Shubayr.'
