Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ الْمُعْتَمِرِ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ، عَنْ رَبِيعِ بْنِ عُمَيْلَةَ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَا تُسَمِّيَنَّ غُلَامَكَ يَسَارًا، وَلَا رَبَاحًا، وَلَا نَجِيحًا، وَلَا أَفْلَحَ فَإِنَّكَ تَقُولُ: أَثَمَّ هُوَ ؟، فَيَقُولُ: لَا، إِنَّمَا هُنَّ أَرْبَعٌ فَلَا تَزِيدَنَّ عَلَيَّ .

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم as saying: Do not call your servant Yasar (wealth), Rabah (profit), Nijih (prosperous) and Aflah (successful), for you may ask; Is he there? And someone says: No. Samurah said: These are four (names), so do not attribute more to me.
