1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Muhammad ibn Khalid from Sa‘d ibn Sa‘d from Idris ibn ‘ Abd Allah who has said the following
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a child who dies on the seventh day: if ‘Aqiqah is still necessary. He (the Imam) said, ‘If he dies before al-Zuhr ‘Aqiqah is not required; but if he dies after al-Zuhr then ‘Aqiqah is required.”’
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ إِدْرِيسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ مَوْلُودٍ يُولَدُ فَيَمُوتُ يَوْمَ السَّابِعِ هَلْ يُعَقُّ عَنْهُ قَالَ إِنْ كَانَ مَاتَ قَبْلَ الظُّهْرِ لَمْ يُعَقَّ عَنْهُ وَ إِنْ مَاتَ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ عُقَّ عَنْهُ .
