Hadith 129
۞
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Darraj who has said the following
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the ‘Aqiqah, shaving, giving a name to the newborn and that which one should come first. He (the Imam) said, ‘All of it should be done in one hour, shaving, slaughtering the animal offered for ‘Aqiqah and naming the child.’ He (the Imam) then mentioned what Fatimah, ‘Alayha al-Salam, had done for her children. He (the Imam) then said, ‘The hairs are weighed and equal to its weight silver is given in charity.’”
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الْعَقِيقَةِ وَ الْحَلْقِ وَ التَّسْمِيَةِ بِأَيِّهَا يُبْدَأُ قَالَ يُصْنَعُ ذَلِكَ كُلُّهُ فِي سَاعَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ يُحْلَقُ وَ يُذْبَحُ وَ يُسَمَّى ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ مَا صَنَعَتْ فَاطِمَةُ ( عليها السلام ) لِوُلْدِهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ يُوزَنُ الشَّعْرُ وَ يُتَصَدَّقُ بِوَزْنِهِ فِضَّةً .
