Urdu Translation

سمرہ بن جندب رضی اللہ عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ   رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: تم اپنے بچے یا اپنے غلام کا نام یسار، رباح، نجیح اور افلح ہرگز نہ رکھو، اس لیے کہ تم پوچھو گے: کیا وہاں ہے وہ؟ تو جواب دینے والا کہے گا: نہیں ( تو تم اسے بدفالی سمجھ کر اچھا نہ سمجھو گے ) ( سمرہ نے کہا ) یہ تو بس چار ہیں اور تم اس سے زیادہ مجھ سے نہ نقل کرنا۔
