إِذَا وُلِدَ لَكَ غُلَامٌ أَوْ جَارِيَةٌ فَعُقَّ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ السَّابِعِ شَاةً أَوْ جَزُوراً وَ كُلْ مِنْهَا وَ أَطْعِمْ وَ سَمِّ وَ احْلِقْ رَأْسَهُ يَوْمَ السَّابِعِ وَ تَصَدَّقْ بِوَزْنِ شَعْرِهِ ذَهَباً أَوْ فِضَّةً وَ أَعْطِ الْقَابِلَةَ طَائِفَةً مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَأَيَّ ذَلِكَ فَعَلْتَ فَقَدْ أَجْزَأَكَ‌.

7. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Ali ibn abu Hamzah from abu Basir who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If a boy or a girl is born to you, on the seventh day offer an ‘Aqiqah, a sheep or a camel and eat of its meat, feed others and give him a name. Shave his head on the seventh day and equal to the weight of his hairs give silver or gold in charity. You should give to the doctor something thereof. Whatever of these (sheep or camel, silver or gold) you did is sufficient.’”

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
