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 .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, form his father, from Usman Bin Isa, from Sama’at who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The child, perform <span class="iTxt">Aqeeqa</span> for him, and shave off his head when he is a boy of one seven days, and weigh his hair and give in charity from it by the weight of his hair, gold or silver, and feed the midwife with the leg (of the slaughtered animal) and the leaf (of silver or gold)’. And he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The <span class="iTxt">Aqeeqa</span> is a camel or sheep’.
