It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Karz (may Allah be pleased with her) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say at Hudaybiyyah—while I had gone out in search of meat—that for a boy’s ‘aqiqah two goats should be sacrificed, and for a girl one goat, and it does not matter whether the animal is male or female. Hazrat Umm Karz (may Allah be pleased with her) says that I also heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Let the birds remain in their nests.
