أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْكُوفِيُّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنْ هَارُونَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ قَالَ لِي كَتَمُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ فَنِعْمَ وَ اللَّهِ الْأَسْمَاءُ كَتَمُوهَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) إِذَا دَخَلَ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ وَ اجْتَمَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ قُرَيْشٌ يَجْهَرُ بِبِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَ يَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ فَتُوَلِّي قُرَيْشٌ فِرَاراً فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي ذَلِكَ وَ إِذا ذَكَرْتَ رَبَّكَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ وَحْدَهُ وَلَّوْا عَلى أَدْبارِهِمْ نُفُوراً.
387. Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al-Kufy, from Ali Bin Al-Hassan Bin Ali, from Abdul Rahmaan Bin Abu Najraan, from Haroun, who has said the following: Abu Abdullah  having said to me: ‘They have concealed ‘بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ’ ‘In the Name of Allah (azwj) the Beneficent, the Merciful’. So, by Allah (azwj), they have concealed the Best Name. The Rasool Allah ﷺ, when he  used to enter his ﷺ house, and the Quresyh were gathered against him ﷺ, would say loudly ‘بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ’ ‘In the Name of Allah (azwj), the Beneficent, the Merciful’, and raise his ﷺ voice with it. The Qureysh would then flee. So Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Revealed with regards to that: “[17:46] And We have placed coverings on their hearts and a heaviness in their ears lest they understand it, and when you mention your Lord alone in the Quran they turn their backs in aversion”.’
