Al-Kafi 10535

Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Abu Haroun, a slave of the progeny of Ja’da who said, ‘I was a regular sitter with Abu Abdullah^asws in Al-Medina. So he^asws found me absent for a few days, then I came over to him^asws. So he^asws said to me: ‘Why have I^asws not seen you since a few days, O Abu Haroun?’ So I said, ‘A boy has been born for me’. So he^asws said: ‘May Allah^azwj Bless you in him. So what have you named him as?’ I said, ‘I have named him as Muhammad’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So turned his^asws cheek towards the ground and he^asws was saying: ‘Muhammad, Muhammad, Muhammad’, until his^asws cheek almost got fixed with the ground. Then he^asws said: ‘By my^asws soul, and by my^asws children, and by my^asws family, and by my^asws parents, and by the inhabitants of the earth, all of them together, sacrificed for Rasool-Allah^saww. Neither insult him, nor hit him, nor harm him; and know that there no house in the earth in which is a name Muhammad, except that it Extols (the Holiness of Allah^azwj) every day’. Then he^asws said to me: ‘Have you performed <span class="iTxt">Aqeeqa</span> from him?’ So I remained silent. And he^asws saw me where I remained silent thinking that I did not do it, so he^asws said: ‘O Musaddaf! Come closer to me^asws’. So, by Allah^azwj, I do not know what he^asws said to him, except that I guessed he^asws had ordered something for me. So I went to arise, so he^asws said to me: ‘Stay as you were, O Abu Haroun! So Musaddaf came over to me with three Dinars, so he placed them in my hands. So he^asws said: ‘O Abu Haroun! Go and buy two rams, and fatten both of these, and slaughter both of these, and eat and feed’.
