حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو غَسَّانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلٍ قَالَ: أُتِيَ بِالْمُنْذِرِ بْنِ أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم حِينَ وُلِدَ، فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ، وَأَبُو أُسَيْدٍ جَالِسٌ، فَلَهَى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِشَيْءٍ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، وَأَمَرَ أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ بِابْنِهِ فَاحْتُمِلَ مِنْ فَخِذِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَاسْتَفَاقَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: أَيْنَ الصَّبِيُّ؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ: قَلَبْنَاهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: مَا اسْمُهُ؟ قَالَ: فُلاَنٌ، قَالَ: لاَ، لَكِنِ اسْمُهُ الْمُنْذِرُ، فَسَمَّاهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُنْذِرَ.

Sahl said: Al-Mundhir ibn Abi Usayd was brought to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, when he was born. The Prophet placed him on his thigh while Abu Usayd was sitting nearby. The Prophet became occupied with something before him, and Abu Usayd ordered his son to be carried away from the Prophet’s thigh. When the Prophet came to, he asked: “Where is the child?” Abu Usayd replied: “We moved him, Messenger of Allah.” He asked: “What is his name?” Abu Usayd said: “So-and-so.” He replied: “No, his name is al-Mundhir.” So he named him al-Mundhir that day.
