حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ،‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كُنَّا نَقُولُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ بِكَ عَيْنًا وَأَنْعِمْ صَبَاحًا،‏‏‏‏ فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْإِسْلَامُ،‏‏‏‏ نُهِينَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ:‏‏‏‏ يُكْرَهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ الرَّجُلُ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ بِكَ عَيْنًا،‏‏‏‏ وَلَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يَقُولَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَيْنَكَ .

In the pre-Islamic period we used to say: May Allah make the eye happy for you, and Good morning but when Islam came, we were forbidden to say that. Abdur Razzaq said on the authority of Mamar: It is disapproved that a man should say: May Allah make the eye happy for you, but there is no harm in saying: May Allah make your eye happy.
