Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ‏:‏ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي السُّوقِ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ‏:‏ يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ، فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَقَالَ‏:‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا دَعَوْتُ هَذَا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏:‏ سَمُّوا بِاسْمِي، وَلاَ تُكَنُّوا بِكُنْيَتِي‏.‏

Adam related to us, saying: Shu‘ba related to us, from Humayd al-Tawil, from Anas ibn Malik, who said: The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was in the market when a man said: “O Abu al-Qasim!” The Prophet turned toward him. The man said: “Messenger of Allah, I was only calling this other man.” The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “Name yourselves with my name, but do not use my kunya.”
