Those who said: No bone of the aqiqah is to be broken

Ja'far narrates from his father that, concerning the aqiqah that Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) performed on behalf of Sayyiduna Hasan and Sayyiduna Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them both), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that they send a leg of it to the midwife, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No bone of the aqiqah is to be broken."

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: (The animal of) the aqiqah is to be separated at the joints and cooked, and none of its bones is to be broken.

Ibn Abi Dhi'b narrates about al-Zuhri; he said: I asked al-Zuhri about the aqiqah, and he said: Its bones and its head are to be broken, and the child is not to be touched with any of its blood.

It is narrated from al-Nahhas bin Qahm that he said: I heard Ata say that the earlier people used to like that no bone of the aqiqah be broken.

Hisham narrates about al-Hasan and Muhammad that both of them disliked that the child's head be smeared with the blood of the aqiqah.

And al-Hasan said: Blood is impure.
