Arabic (Original)
631/816- عن سهل قال: أتي بالمنذر بن أبي أسيد إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم حين ولد، فوضعه على فخذه- وأبو أُسيد جالس- فلهى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بشيء بين يديه، وأمر أبو أسيد بابنه فاحتمل من فخذ النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فاستفاق النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال:"أين الصبي؟". فقال أبو أسيد: قلبناه يا رسول الله! قال:"ما اسمه؟". قال: فلان. قال:"لا، لكن اسمه المنذر"، فسماه يؤمئذٍ المنذر.
English Translation
Sahl reported: Al-Mundhir ibn Abi Usayd was brought to the Prophet (peace be upon him) when he was born. He placed him on his thigh — while Abu Usayd was sitting. The Prophet (peace be upon him) became occupied with something, so Abu Usayd ordered his son to be picked up from the Prophet's thigh. The Prophet came to his senses and asked: 'Where is the boy?' Abu Usayd said: We sent him back, O Messenger of Allah. He asked: 'What is his name?' He said: Such-and-such. He said: 'No, his name is al-Mundhir.' So he named him al-Mundhir that day.
