Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · The meaning of the names of Muhammed, Ali, Fatima, Hasan, Hussain and the Imams, peace be upon them
حدثنا الحسن بن محمد بن يحيى العلوي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثني جدي قال: حدثنا داود بن القاسم، قال: أخبرنا عيسى، قال أخبرنا يوسف بن يعقوب، قال: حدثنا عنبسة، عن عمرو بن دينار، عن عكرمة، قال: لما ولدت فاطمة عليها السلام الحسن جاءت به إلى النبي فسماه حسنا فلما ولدت الحسين جاءت به إليه وقالت: يا رسول الله هذا أحسن من هذا فسماه حسينا.
7. We were told by Hasan bin Muhammed bin Yahya al-Alawi, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: I was told by my grandfather, that he said: We were told by Dawud bin Qasim, that he said: We were informed by Isa, that he said: We were informed by Yusuf bin Ya’qoub, that he said: We were told by ‘Anbasa, from Amru bin Dinar, from Ikrima, that he said: When Fatima, peace be upon her, gave birth to Hasan, she brought him to the Prophet and he named him Hasan, and when she gave birth to Hussain, she brought him to him and said: O Messenger of Allah, he is better than him. So he named him Hussain.
