Sahih Muslim Book - 38, Hadith - 5613

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ (1)، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ ابْنٌ لأَبِي طَلْحَةَ يَشْتَكِي ، فَخَرَجَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ ، فَقُبِضَ الصَّبِيُّ ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ قَالَ : مَا فَعَلَ ابْنِي ؟ قَالَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ : هُوَ أَسْكَنُ مِمَّا كَانَ ، فَقَرَّبَتْ إِلَيْهِ الْعَشَاءَ فَتَعَشَّى ، ثُمَّ أَصَابَ مِنْهَا ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَتْ : وَارُوا الصَّبِيَّ ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ ، فَقَالَ : أَعْرَسْتُمُ اللَّيْلَةَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمَا فَوَلَدَتْ غُلاَمًا ، فَقَالَ لِي أَبُو طَلْحَةَ : احْمِلْهُ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَبَعَثَتْ مَعَهُ بِتَمَرَاتٍ ، فَأَخَذَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : أَمَعَهُ شَيْءٌ ؟ قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، تَمَرَاتٌ ، فَأَخَذَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَضَغَهَا ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا مِنْ فِيهِ ، فَجَعَلَهَا فِي فِي الصَّبِيِّ ثُمَّ حَنَّكَهُ ، وَسَمَّاهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ.

It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said: "A son of Abu Talhah fell sick; Abu Talhah went out and the boy died. When Abu Talhah returned he said: 'What happened to my son?' Umm Sulaim said: 'He is quieter than he was.' She brought him his dinner and he ate, then he had intercourse with her, and when it was over she said: 'Bury the boy.' The next morning Abu Talhah went to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and told him what had happened. He said: 'Did you spend the night together?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'O Allah, bless them.' She gave birth to a boy and Abu Talhah said to me: 'Take him to the Prophet (s.a.w),' [So he took him to the Prophet (s.a.w)] And she sent some dates with him. The Prophet (s.a.w) took him and said: 'Is there anything with him?' They said: 'Yes, some dates.' The Prophet (s.a.w) took them and chewed them, then he took it from his mouth and put it in the child's mouth and rubbed it on his palate (Tahnik) and named him 'Abdullah."
