بَابُ حَقِيقَةِ الْعَقِيقَةِ وَالْفَرْعِ وَالْعَتِيرَةِ
Chapter on the Reality of 'Aqiqah, Fara', and 'Atirah
Hadith 4718
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ نَحَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَزُورًا فَانْتَهَبَهَا النَّاسُ فَنَادَى مُنَادِيهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ يَنْهَيَانِكُمْ عَنِ النُّهْبَةِ فَجَاءَ النَّاسُ بِمَا أَخَذُوا فَقَسَمَهُ بَيْنَهُمْ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, slaughtered camels and the people began to snatch the meat. So, the caller of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, announced and said: Indeed, Allah and His Messenger forbid you from snatching. Upon hearing this, the people brought whatever they had taken to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and he distributed it among them.
Hadith 4719
عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْعَقِيقَةِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْعُقُوقَ وَكَأَنَّهُ كَرِهَ الِاسْمَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا نَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ أَحَدِنَا يُولَدُ لَهُ قَالَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَنْسُكَ عَنْ وَلَدِهِ فَلْيَفْعَلْ عَنِ الْغُلَامِ شَاتَانِ مُكَافَأَتَانِ وَعَنِ الْجَارِيَةِ شَاةٌ قَالَ وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الْفَرَعِ قَالَ وَالْفَرَعُ حَقٌّ وَأَنْ تَتْرُكَهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ شُغْزُبًّا أَوْ شُغْزُوبًّا ابْنَ مَخَاضٍ أَوِ ابْنَ لَبُونٍ فَتَحْمِلَ عَلَيْهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَوْ تُعْطِيَهُ أَرْمَلَةً خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَذْبَحَهُ يَلْصَقُ لَحْمُهُ بِوَبَرِهِ وَتُكْفِئُ إِنَاءَكَ وَتُوَلِّهِ نَاقَتَكَ وَقَالَ وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الْعَتِيرَةِ فَقَالَ الْعَتِيرَةُ حَقٌّ قَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ مَا الْعَتِيرَةُ قَالَ كَانُوا يَذْبَحُونَ فِي رَجَبٍ شَاةً فَيَطْبُخُونَ وَيَأْكُلُونَ وَيُطْعِمُونَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about ‘Aqiqah, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: Indeed, Allah Almighty dislikes disobedience to parents (‘uquq). It is as if he (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked this word. The people said: O Messenger of Allah! We are asking you about when a child is born (the animal that is slaughtered on his behalf). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever wishes to offer a sacrifice on behalf of his child, let him do so. The detail is that for a boy, two equal animals from among goats or sheep, and for a girl, one. Then when he (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about Fara’, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Fara’ is a right, but if you leave that animal until its meat becomes hard, that is, until it becomes Ibn Makhad or Ibn Labun, then you give it in the way of Allah for riding or give it to widows, then this act is better than slaughtering it when its meat is still clinging to its hair. In this way, you would only pour out your pot and trouble your she-camel. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about ‘Atirah, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Atirah is a right. A man asked Amr bin Shu’aib: What is ‘Atirah? He said: People used to slaughter a goat in the month of Rajab, cook it, eat it themselves, and feed others as well.
Hadith 4720
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ عَنْ نُبَيْشَةَ الْهُذَلِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَعْتِرُ عَتِيرَةً فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَفِي لَفْظٍ رَجَبٍ فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا قَالَ اذْبَحُوا لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي أَيِّ شَهْرٍ مَا كَانَ وَبَرُّوا لِلَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَأَطْعِمُوا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا كُنَّا نُفَرِّعُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَرَعًا فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا قَالَ فِي كُلِّ سَائِمَةٍ فَرَعٌ تَغْذُوهُ مَاشِيَتُكَ حَتَّى إِذَا اسْتَحْمَلَ ذَبَحْتَهُ فَتَصَدَّقْتَ بِلَحْمِهِ قَالَ خَالِدٌ أُرَاهُ قَالَ عَلَى ابْنِ السَّبِيلِ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ هُوَ خَيْرٌ قَالَ خَالِدٌ قُلْتُ لِأَبِي قِلَابَةَ كَمِ السَّائِمَةُ قَالَ مِائَةٌ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Nabeesha Hudhali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the people said: O Messenger of Allah! In the days of ignorance, we used to slaughter ‘Atirah in the month of Rajab. What do you command us now? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sacrifice for Allah, it can be in any month, and do good for Allah and feed the people. The people said: O Messenger of Allah! In the days of ignorance, we used to slaughter Fara’. What do you command us regarding it now? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Every grazing animal is Fara’; when your animals continue to give it milk until it becomes fit for riding, then slaughter it and give its meat as charity to the traveler, for that is better. ..... al-Hadith. Khalid, the narrator, said: I asked Abu Qilabah: How many are the grazing animals? He said: One hundred.
