إِذَا وُلِدَ لَكُمُ الْمَوْلُودُ أَيَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ تَصْنَعُونَ بِهِ قُلْتُ لَا أَدْرِي مَا نَصْنَعُ بِهِ قَالَ خُذْ عَدَسَةَ جَاوَشِيرَ فَدُفْهُ بِمَاءٍ ثُمَّ قَطِّرْ فِي أَنْفِهِ فِي الْمَنْخِرِ الْأَيْمَنِ قَطْرَتَيْنِ وَ فِي الْأَيْسَرِ قَطْرَةً وَاحِدَةً وَ أَذِّنْ فِي أُذُنِهِ الْيُمْنَى وَ أَقِمْ فِي الْيُسْرَى تَفْعَلُ بِهِ ذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُقْطَعَ سُرَّتُهُ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَفْزَعُ أَبَداً وَ لَا تُصِيبُهُ أُمُّ الصِّبْيَانِ .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Fazzal, from Abu Ismail Al Sayqal, from Abu Yahya Al Razy, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When the new-born is born for you, which thing are you doing with it?’ I said, ‘I do not know what we should do with it’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Take a lentil (seed) of <span class="iTxt">Jawashir</span> and soak it with water. Then place a drop in his nose, in the right nostril two drops, and in the left nostril, one, and (recite) <span class="iTxt">Azaan</span> in the right ear and <span class="iTxt">Iqaama</span> in the left. Do these before the cutting off of his umbilical cord, so he would not panic ever, nor would he be hit by the <span class="iTxt">Umm Al-Sibyan</span>’.
