It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that a boy was born to the brother of Umm al-Mu’minin Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her). They named the child Walid. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You have named this child after the names of your Pharaohs (because Walid bin Mughirah was a leader of the polytheists of Makkah and was very active in persecuting the Muslims). There will be a man in my Ummah whose name will be Walid, who will be even worse for this Ummah than Pharaoh was."
