Muhammad bin 'Amr bin 'Ata' reported: I had given the name Barra to my daughter. Zainab, daughter of Abu Salama, told me that Allah's' Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had forbidden me to give this name. (She said): I was also called Barra, but Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Don't hold yourself to be pious. It is God alone who knows the people of piety among you. They (the Companions) said: Then, what name should we give to her? He said: Name her as Zainab.
