John Shaqi

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 .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Jameel Bin Darraj who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the <span class="iTxt">Aqeeqa</span>, and the shaving (of the head), and the naming, by which of these should one begin?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He should do all of that in one time – shaving (the head), and slaughtering, and naming’. Then he<sup>asws</sup> mentioned what Syeda Fatima<sup>asws</sup> had done for her<sup>asws</sup> children, then said: ‘He should weigh the hair and give silver in charity by its weight’.
