Hadith 108
۞
6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Khalid and Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from Sama‘ah who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah, Alayhi al-Salam, has said, ‘For a child Aqiqah must be offered, his head is shaved on the seventh day and equal to the weight of his hairs silver or gold should be given in charity. One leg and hip of the animal slaughtered for ‘Aqiqah should be given to al-Qabilah (the special nurse, doctor). The animal accepted as ‘Aqiqah can be a badanah (camel) or a sheep.’”
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) الصَّبِيُّ يُعَقُّ عَنْهُ وَ يُحْلَقُ رَأْسُهُ وَ هُوَ ابْنُ سَبْعَةِ أَيَّامٍ وَ يُوزَنُ شَعْرُهُ وَ يُتَصَدَّقُ عَنْهُ بِوَزْنِ شَعْرِهِ ذَهَباً أَوْ فِضَّةً وَ يُطْعَمُ الْقَابِلَةَ الرِّجْلُ وَ الْوَرِكُ وَ قَالَ الْعَقِيقَةُ بَدَنَةٌ أَوْ شَاةٌ .
