حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يُغَيِّرُ الاِسْمَ الْقَبِيحَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مُرْسَلٌ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ‏.‏
