Azami 14492

Ishaq bin Rahawayh narrated it - as in Matalib (2796) - from Waki, who said, Usama bin Zayd narrated to us, from Abu Bakr bin Muhammad bin Amr bin Hazm, from his father, and he related it. Its chain is hasan because of Usama bin Zayd, who is al-Laythi, his hadith being hasan so long as he does not contradict others, though at times he narrates things for which he is criticized. That is why Ibn Hajar said following it, "This is a hasan chain."As for what was narrated from Abdul-Rahman bin Abu Layla, who said, Umar looked at Abu Abdul-Hameed - or Ibn Abdul-Hameed, Abu Awana was uncertain which - whose name was Muhammad, while a man was saying to him, "O Muhammad, may Allah do such and such to you," and went on cursing him. He said, so the Commander of the Faithful said at that point, "O Ibn Zayd, come near me." He said, "Do I not see Muhammad being cursed on your account! No, by Allah, you shall not be called Muhammad as long as I am alive," so he named him Abdul-Rahman. Then he sent to the sons of Talha to have them change their names, and they were seven at that time, their master and eldest being Muhammad. He said, so Muhammad bin Talha said, "I appeal to you by Allah, O Commander of the Faithful, for by Allah, none but Muhammad named me Muhammad" ﷺ. Umar said, "Get up, I have no authority over anything that Muhammad named." This chain has a break in it.Ahmad narrated it (17896), and Tabarani in Mujam al-Kabir (19/242), both through Abu Awana, who said, Hilal bin Abu Humayd narrated to us, from Abdul-Rahman bin Abu Layla, who said, and he related it. Its narrators are trustworthy, but it is disconnected, for Ibn Main, Ibn Madini, Shuba, Abu Hatim Razi, and others held that he did not hear directly from Umar . Tuhfat Tahsil (pp. 204-205).Haythami said in Majma (8/49), "Tabarani and Ahmad narrated it, and Ahmad's narrators are the narrators of Sahih." But this does not necessarily mean the hadith is sahih.
