حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ ثنا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ السَّدُوسِيُّ ثنا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالُوا ثنا حَشْرَجُ بْنُ نُبَاتَةَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ جُمْهَانَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ سَفِينَةَ عَنِ اسْمِهِ فَقَالَ
أَنَا مُخْبِرُكَ بِاسْمِي سَمَّانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَفِينَةَ قُلْتُ لِمَ سَمَّاكَ سَفِينَةَ؟ قَالَ خَرَجَ وَمَعَنَا أَصْحَابُهُ فَثَقُلَ عَلَيْهِمْ مَتَاعُهُمْ فَقَالَ «ابْسُطْ كِسَاءَكَ» فَبَسَطْتُهُ فَجَعَلَ فِيهِ مَتَاعَهُم ثُمَّ حَمَلَهُ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ «احْمِلْ مَا أَنْتَ إِلَّا سَفِينَةٌ» قَالَ فَلَوْ حَمَلْتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ وِقْرَ بَعِيرٍ أَوْ بَعِيرَيْنِ أَوْ خَمْسَةَ أَوْسُقٍ مَا ثَقُلَ عَلَيَّ

✧ I will tell you my name. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ named me Safinah. I said, "Why did he name you Safinah?" He said: He went out with his companions, and their baggage became heavy for them, so he said, "Spread your cloak." I spread it, and he placed their baggage in it, then loaded it on me and said, "Carry it, for you are nothing but a ship (safinah)." He said: If I had carried that day the load of a camel, or two camels, or five wasqs, it would not have been heavy on me.
