The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is this hadith established from Ibn Abbas, that on the Day of Resurrection a caller will call out from before Allah the Exalted: “Whoever is named Muhammad, stand up and enter Paradise, in honor of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)”?
The Shaykh:
This is fabricated. It is not a hadith.
The questioner:
And likewise, Habib.
The Shaykh:
No, just because his name is Muhammad, he enters Paradise? Are there among the polytheists those named Muhammad who enter Paradise? Yes.
