حَدَّثَنَا مَطَرُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَوْنٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : كَانَ ابْنٌ لِأَبِي طَلْحَةَ يَشْتَكِي ، فَخَرَجَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ فَقُبِضَ الصَّبِيُّ ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ ، قَالَ : مَا فَعَلَ ابْنِي ؟ قَالَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ : هُوَ أَسْكَنُ مَا كَانَ ، فَقَرَّبَتْ إِلَيْهِ الْعَشَاءَ ، فَتَعَشَّى ثُمَّ أَصَابَ مِنْهَا ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ ، قَالَتْ : وَارُوا الصَّبِيَّ ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ ، فَقَالَ : أَعْرَسْتُمُ اللَّيْلَةَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمَا ، فَوَلَدَتْ غُلَامًا ، قَالَ لِي أَبُو طَلْحَةَ : احْفَظْهُ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَرْسَلَتْ مَعَهُ بِتَمَرَاتٍ ، فَأَخَذَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : أَمَعَهُ شَيْءٌ ؟ قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، تَمَرَاتٌ ، فَأَخَذَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَضَغَهَا ثُمَّ أَخَذَ مِنْ فِيهِ فَجَعَلَهَا فِي فِي الصَّبِيِّ وَحَنَّكَهُ بِهِ وَسَمَّاهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ.حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ،‏.‏

Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ had a child who was sick. Once, while Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ was out, the child died. When Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ returned home, he asked, "How does my son fare?" Um Salaim رضی اللہ عنہا (his wife) replied, "He is quieter than he has ever been." Then she brought supper for him and he took his supper and slept with her. When he had finished, she said (to him), "Bury the child (as he's dead)." Next morning Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and told him about that. The Prophet (ﷺ) said (to him), "Did you sleep with your wife last night?" Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ said, "Yes". The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Bestow your blessing on them as regards that night of theirs." Um Sulaim رضی اللہ عنہا gave birth to a boy. Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ told me to take care of the child till it was taken to the Prophet. Then Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ took the child to the Prophet (ﷺ) and Um Sulaim رضی اللہ عنہا sent some dates along with the child. The Prophet (ﷺ) took the child (on his lap) and asked if there was something with him. The people replied, "Yes, a few dates." The Prophet took a date, chewed it, took some of it out of his mouth, put it into the child's mouth and did Tahnik for him with that, and named him 'Abdullah. Hadrat Muhammad bin Sireen has reported the aforementioned Hadith from Hadrat Anas رضی اللہ عنہ .
