عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مَرَّارٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ عَقَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) بِيَدِهِ وَ قَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ عَقِيقَةٌ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ وَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ عَظْمُهَا بِعَظْمِهِ وَ لَحْمُهَا بِلَحْمِهِ وَ دَمُهَا بِدَمِهِ وَ شَعْرُهَا بِشَعْرِهِ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهَا وِقَاءً لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ .

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ’Isma‘il ibn Marrar from Yunus from certain persons of his people who have said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, offered Aqiqah for al-Hassan with his own hands and said, “In the name of Allah. It is an ‘Aqiqah for al-Hassan.” He (the Messenger of Allah) also said, “O Lord, its bones are for his bones, its flesh for his flesh, its blood for his blood and its hairs for his hairs. O Lord, make it a protection for Muhammad and his family.’””

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَقَّتْ فَاطِمَةُ عَنِ ابْنَيْهَا وَ حَلَقَتْ رُءُوسَهُمَا فِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ وَ تَصَدَّقَتْ بِوَزْنِ الشَّعْرِ وَرِقاًوَ قَالَ كَانَ نَاسٌ يُلَطِّخُونَ رَأْسَ الصَّبِيِّ فِي دَمِ الْعَقِيقَةِ وَ كَانَ أَبِي يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ شِرْكٌ .

2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Mu‘awiyah ibn Wahab who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, has said that Fatimah, ‘Alayha al-Salam, offered ‘Aqiqah for her two sons, shaved their heads on the seventh day, and gave in charity equal to the weight of their hairs of leaf (silver or gold).’ He (the Imam) has said that people would stain the head of the child with the blood of the animal for ‘Aqiqah and my father would say that it is a practice of pagans.’”

عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْكُوزِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَذْكُرُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) عَقَّ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) بِكَبْشٍ وَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ( عليه السلام ) بِكَبْشٍ وَ أَعْطَى الْقَابِلَةَ شَيْئاً وَ حَلَقَ رُءُوسَهُمَا يَوْمَ سَابِعِهِمَا وَ وَزَنَ شَعْرَهُمَا فَتَصَدَّقَ بِوَزْنِهِ فِضَّةًقَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يُؤْخَذُ الدَّمُ فَيُلَطَّخُ بِهِ رَأْسُ الصَّبِيِّ فَقَالَ ذَاكَ شِرْكٌ فَقُلْتُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ شِرْكٌ فَقَالَ لَوْ لَمْ يَكُنْ ذَاكَ شِرْكاً فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يُعْمَلُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَ نُهِيَ عَنْهُ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ .

3. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from ‘Asem al- Kuziy who has said the following: “I once heard abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, narrating from his father that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, offered ‘Aqiqah for al-Hassan, ‘Alayhi al-Salam. It was a ram and one ram for al-Husayn, ‘Alayhi al- Salam. He (the Messenger of Allah) gave something to al-Qabilah (the special nurse), shaved their heads on the seventh day, weighed their hairs and equal to its weight gave in charity.’ He (the narrator) has said, ‘I asked him (the Imam), ‘Is blood taken to stain the head of the child?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘That is shirk (considering things partners of Allah), a practice of pagans.’ I then said, ‘Allah is free of all defects. Is it shirk?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘If it is not shirk it certainly was a practice in the time of ignorance and Islam has prohibited it.’”

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 .

4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn abu ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Darraj who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, 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.’”

الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ سَمَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) حَسَناً وَ حُسَيْناً ( عليهما السلام ) يَوْمَ سَابِعِهِمَا وَ عَقَّ عَنْهُمَا شَاةً شَاةً وَ بَعَثُوا بِرِجْلِ شَاةٍ إِلَى الْقَابِلَةِ وَ نَظَرُوا مَا غَيْرُهُ فَأَكَلُوا مِنْهُ وَ أَهْدَوْا إِلَى الْجِيرَانِ وَ حَلَقَتْ فَاطِمَةُ ( عليها السلام ) رُءُوسَهُمَا وَ تَصَدَّقَتْ بِوَزْنِ شَعْرِهِمَا فِضَّةً .

5. Al-Husayn from Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla’ ibn Muhammad from certain persons of his people from Aban from Yahya ibn abu al-‘Ala’ who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, has stated this Hadith. ‘The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, named al-Hassan and al-Husayn, ‘Alayhim al-Salam, on the seventh day from their birth, offered a sheep for ‘Aqiqah, one leg of the sheep was sent to al-Qabilah (the special nurse) and the rest was kept. They ate thereof and gave as a gift to neighbors. Fatimah, ‘Alayha al-Salam, shaved their heads and gave in charity silver by the weight of the hairs.”’

عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ التَّهْنِئَةِ بِالْوَلَدِ مَتَى فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ قَالَ لَمَّا وُلِدَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ هَبَطَ جَبْرَئِيلُ بِالتَّهْنِئَةِ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) فِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ وَ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُسَمِّيَهُ وَ يُكَنِّيَهُ وَ يَحْلِقَ رَأْسَهُ وَ يَعُقَّ عَنْهُ وَ يَثْقُبَ أُذُنَهُ وَ كَذَلِكَ كَانَ حِينَ وُلِدَ الْحُسَيْنُ ( عليه السلام ) أَتَاهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ فَأَمَرَهُ بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَقَالَ وَ كَانَ لَهُمَا ذُؤَابَتَانِ فِي الْقَرْنِ الْأَيْسَرِ وَ كَانَ الثَّقْبُ فِي الْأُذُنِ الْيُمْنَى فِي شَحْمَةِ الْأُذُنِ وَ فِي الْيُسْرَى فِي أَعْلَى الْأُذُنِ فَالْقُرْطُ فِي الْيُمْنَى وَ الشَّنْفُ فِي الْيُسْرَىوَ قَدْ رُوِيَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) تَرَكَ لَهُمَا ذُؤَابَتَيْنِ فِي وَسَطِ الرَّأْسِ وَ هُوَ أَصَحُّ مِنَ الْقَرْنِ .

6. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from af-Husayn ibn Khafid who has said the following: “I once asked al-Rida’, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, about when to offer congratulations for the birth of a child. He (the Imam) stated this Hadith. Tt was the birth of al-Hassan ibn Ali, ‘Alayhi al-Salam. Jibril descended to congratulate the Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, on the seventh day and instructed to name him and give him a Kunyah, shave his head, offer ‘Aqiqah for him and pierce a hole in his ear. When al-Husayn, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, was born Jibril came on the seventh day and instructed similarly.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘They both had two bunches of hairs on the left middle side of their head and the hole was in their right ear on the loop and on the left one it was on the top of the ear. Earring was in the right ear and al-Shanf (earring) on the left ear.’ It is narrated that the Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, left two bunches of hairs on the middle of their head and it is more correct than al-Qarn (the left middle of the head).”’
