وَعَن جَابر قَالَ أَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَنْهَى عَنْ أَنْ يُسَمَّى بِيَعْلَى وَبِبَرَكَةَ وَبِأَفْلَحَ وَبِيَسَارٍ وَبِنَافِعٍ وَبِنَحْوِ ذَلِكَ. ثُمَّ سَكَتَ بَعْدُ عَنْهَا ثُمَّ قُبِضَ وَلَمْ يَنْهَ عَنْ ذَلِك. رَوَاهُ مُسلم
Sayyiduna Jabir رضي الله عنه narrated, "The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم had intended to forbid keeping names: Ya'la, Barakah, Aflah, Yasar, Nafi and similar to them. However, I observed that he said nothing afterwards about it. Finally, he died without disallowing them." [3]
