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 (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah (saww) offered Aqiqah for al-Hasan with his own hands and said, 'In the name of Allah. It is an ‘Aqiqah for al-Hasan.' 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.'"

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 .

Hadith 128

3. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from ‘Asim al-Kuzi who has said the following

“I once heard Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), narrating from his father that the Messenger of Allah (saww) offered ‘Aqiqah for al-Hassan (a.s.). It was a ram and one ram for al-Husayn (a.s.). 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.’”

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 .
