حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ عَدِيٍّ أَنْبَأَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَمَّا وُلِدَ الْحَسَنُ سَمَّاهُ حَمْزَةَ فَلَمَّا وُلِدَ الْحُسَيْنُ سَمَّاهُ بِعَمِّهِ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ فَدَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُغَيِّرَ اسْمَ هَذَيْنِ فَقُلْتُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ فَسَمَّاهُمَا حَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا

مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 1370

It was narrated that 'Ali (RA) said: When al- Hasan was born, I named him Hamzah. When al-Husain was bom, I named him after his paternal uncle Ja'far. Then the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) called me and said: "I have been commanded to change the names of these two." I said: Allah and His Messenger know best. And he named them Hasan and Husain.
