Sahih Muslim: Book 38, Hadith 36
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، – وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُطَرِّفٍ أَبُو غَسَّانَ – حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ
أُتِيَ بِالْمُنْذِرِ بْنِ أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حِينَ وُلِدَ فَوَضَعَهُ النَّبِيُّ
صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلَى فَخِذِهِ وَأَبُو أُسَيْدٍ جَالِسٌ فَلَهِيَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِشَىْءٍ
بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَأَمَرَ أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ بِابْنِهِ فَاحْتُمِلَ مِنْ عَلَى فَخِذِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
فَأَقْلَبُوهُ فَاسْتَفَاقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ ” أَيْنَ الصَّبِيُّ ” . فَقَالَ أَبُو
أُسَيْدٍ أَقْلَبْنَاهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ . فَقَالَ ” مَا اسْمُهُ ” . قَالَ فُلاَنٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ . قَالَ ”
لاَ وَلَكِنِ اسْمُهُ الْمُنْذِرُ ” . فَسَمَّاهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُنْذِرَ .

The above hadith is from the Sahih Muslim collection of hadiths. Sahih Muslim is a classic compilation of hadith that carries immense weight in Sunni Islamic theology.

It is rightly classified as one of the Kutub al-Sittah, the six books that constitute the most reliable hadith collections in Islam. The complete set includes the works of al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawood, al-Tirmidhi, al-Nasa’i, and ibn Majah. The Sahih Muslim collection is notably comprised of 7,459 individual hadiths, all distributed across 54 major thematic sections or books.
