حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ الْخَيَّاطُ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَسْعَدَةُ بْنُ الْيَسَعِ ، عَنْ حُرَيْثِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "مَنْ وُلِدَ لَهُ غُلامٌ فَلْيَعِقَّ عَنْهُ مِنَ الإِبِلِ أَوِ الْبَقَرِ أَوِ الْغَنَمِ "، لَمْ يَرْوِهِ عَنْ حُرَيْثٍ ، إِلا مَسْعَدَةُ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever has a child born to him, let him perform 'aqiqah for him with camels, cows, or goats."

The Qur’an and Hadith Always Take Precedence Over All Opinions and Fatwas
Written by: The Muhaddith of the Era, Hafiz Zubair Ali Zai rahimahullah
“The Qur’an and Hadith always take precedence over all opinions and fatwas. In fact, every opinion and fatwa that is contrary to the Qur’an and Hadith is rejected.”
It was asked of Umm al-Mu’minin, Sayyidah A’ishah radi Allahu anha, whether a camel should be slaughtered as ‘aqiqah on behalf of the child of Abdur Rahman bin Abi Bakr. She replied:
«مَعَاذَ اللّٰهِ! وَلَكِنْ مَا قَالَ رَسُوْلُ اللّٰهِ ﷺ: شَاتَانِ مُكَافَأَتَانِ»
That is, “I seek refuge with Allah from this (matter), but I will do what the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: two sheep, similar (in age and quality).”
(al-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Bayhaqi, vol. 9, p. 301, and its chain is hasan; Tuhfat al-Akhyar 6/428, hadith 2516, and its chain is hasan; Mushkil al-Athar lil-Tahawi 3/68, hadith 1042, and its chain is hasan; al-Kamil li Ibn ‘Adi 5/1962, second edition 7/15)
Several rulings are established from this narration, for example:
➊ It is not permissible to slaughter a cow, camel, etc., as ‘aqiqah.
➋ The Qur’an and Hadith always take precedence over all opinions and fatwas. In fact, every opinion and fatwa that is contrary to the Qur’an and Hadith is rejected.
➌ The great virtue of Sayyidah A’ishah radi Allahu anha is established from this, because she was extremely strict in following the Sunnah.
