Chapter 330
Undesirability of Calling Grapes 'Al-Karm'
Hadith 1740
Abu Hurairah  said: The Messenger of Allah  said, "None of you should use the word Al-Karm for grapes, for Al-Karm is a Muslim (worthy of respect).'' [Al-Bukhari and Muslim] Another narration is: "Verily, Al-Karm is the heart of a true believer.'' Another narration is: "People have named grapes as Al-Karm; verily, only the heart of a believer is Al-Karm.'' Commentary: We learn from this Hadith that all the derivatives from the word Al-Karm can be used legitimately for Muslims only because Muslim is Karim. It is, therefore, wrong to call grapes as Karm.  For an explanation of this Hadith by Dr Muhammad Salah view the video included in Hadith No. 1739 Chapter 329  | |

| Hadith 1741 Wa'il bin Hujr said: The Prophet said, "Do not say Al-Karm when talking about grapes but say Al-`Inab or Al-Habalah.'' [Muslim]. Commentary: Al-Habalah or Habilah means grapevine. It is undesirable (Makruh) to refer to the grapes as Al-Karm, which also means grapes in Arabic, for it is the true Muslim who deserves to be called with a name which is derived from the word Al-Karm.
