Hadith 1056
حَدَّثَنِي حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ " لَمْ يَكُنْ يَسْأَلُهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ عَقِيقَةً، إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهَا، وَكَانَ يَعُقّ عَنْ وَلَدِهِ بِشَاةٍ شَاةٍ، عَنِ الذُّكُورِ وَالْإِنَاثِ "
It is narrated from Nafi‘ that whenever anyone from the household of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) would mention ‘aqiqah, he would give it, and for his children, whether boy or girl, he would give one goat each for ‘aqiqah.
Hadith 1057
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ التَّيْمِيِّ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبِي " يَسْتَحِبُّ الْعَقِيقَةَ وَلَوْ بِعُصْفُورٍ "
It is narrated from Muhammad bin Ibrahim bin Harith Taymi that he heard from his father that 'Aqiqah is better, even if it is only a sparrow.'
Hadith 1058
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ، أَنَّهُ " عُقَّ عَنْ حَسَنٍ، وَحُسَيْنٍ، ابْنَيْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ "
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) was informed that the 'Aqiqah of Sayyiduna Hasan and Sayyiduna Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them both) was performed.
Hadith 1059
قَالَ مَالِك : الْأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا فِي الْعَقِيقَةِ : أَنَّ مَنْ عَقَّ، بَنِيهِ الذُّكُورِ عَنْ وَلَدِهِ بِشَاةٍ، شَاةٍ الذُّكُورِ وَالْإِنَاثِ، وَلَيْسَتِ الْعَقِيقَةُ بِوَاجِبَةٍ، وَلَكِنَّهَا يُسْتَحَبُّ الْعَمَلُ بِهَا، وَهِيَ مِنَ الْأَمْرِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَزَلْ عَلَيْهِ النَّاسُ عِنْدَنَا، فَمَنْ عَقَّ عَنْ وَلَدِهِ، فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ النُّسُكِ وَالضَّحَايَا، لَا يَجُوزُ فِيهَا عَوْرَاءُ، وَلَا عَجْفَاءُ، وَلَا مَكْسُورَةٌ، وَلَا مَرِيضَةٌ، وَلَا يُبَاعُ مِنْ لَحْمِهَا شَيْءٌ، وَلَا جِلْدُهَا، وَيُكْسَرُ عِظَامُهَا، وَيَأْكُلُ أَهْلُهَا مِنْ لَحْمِهَا، وَيَتَصَدَّقُونَ مِنْهَا، وَلَا يُمَسُّ الصَّبِيُّ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ دَمِهَا
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: In our view, the ruling is that whether it is a boy or a girl, one goat should be given for each, and ‘aqiqah is not obligatory, it is recommended. However, the goat for ‘aqiqah should be like that of sacrifice: it should not be one-eyed, thin, with broken horns, or sick. It is not permissible to sell the meat or skin of the ‘aqiqah, and its bones should be broken. The one performing the ‘aqiqah should eat from its meat and feed the poor, and the blood of the ‘aqiqah goat should not be applied to the child.
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ " كَانَ يَعُقّ عَنْ وَالْإِنَاثِ بِشَاةٍ شَاةٍ " .
Hazrat Urwah bin Zubair used to offer one goat each as 'aqiqah for his children, whether boy or girl.
