Sahih Muslim 2132
حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، - وَهُوَ الْمُلَقَّبُ بِسَبَلاَنَ - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، وَأَخِيهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، سَمِعَهُ مِنْهُمَا، سَنَةَ أَرْبَعٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ وَمِائَةٍ يُحَدِّثَانِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنَّ أَحَبَّ أَسْمَائِكُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ " .
Ibrahim ibn Ziyad, nicknamed Sablān, narrated to me: Abbad ibn Abbad informed us from Ubayd Allah ibn Umar and his brother Abd Allah—I heard it from both of them in the year 144 AH—as they related from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “The names most beloved to Allah are Abd Allah and Abd al-Rahman.”
