حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقَارِيُّ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ: مَا كُنَّا نَدْعُو زَيْدَ بْنَ حَارِثَةَ إِلَّا زَيْدَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ حَتَّى نَزَلَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ {ادْعُوهُمْ لِآبَائِهِمْ هُوَ أَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللهِ} [الأحزاب: 5] قَالَ الشَّيْخُ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى: أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ السَّرَّاجُ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يُوسُفَ الدُّوَيْرِيُّ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ.

We were in the habit of calling Zaid bin Harith رضی اللہ عنہ as Zaid bin Muhammad until it was revealed in the Qur'an: Call them by the names of their fathers. This is more equitable with Allah (This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Qutaiba bin Sa'd)
