أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا مُسَدَّدٌ، وَنَصَرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ بِشْرِ بْنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ الْمَعْنِيِّ، ثنا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ، عَنْ ⦗٥٢٤⦘ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ، قَالَ: قَالَ نُبَيْشَةُ: نَادَى رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّا كُنَّا نَعْتِرُ عَتِيرَةً فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فِي رَجَبٍ فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ: " اذْبَحُوا لِلَّهِ فِي أِيِّ شَهْرٍ كَانَ، وَبِرُّوا لِلَّهِ وَأَطْعِمُوا". قَالَ: إِنَّا كُنَّا نُفَرِّعُ فَرَعًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ: " فِي كُلِّ سَائِمَةٍ فَرَعٌ تَغْذُوهُ مَاشِيَتُكَ حَتَّى إِذَا اسْتَجْمَلَ ذَبَحْتَهُ فَتَصَدَّقْتَ بِلَحْمِهِ". قَالَ خَالِدٌ: أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: " عَلَى ابْنِ السَّبِيلِ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ". قَالَ خَالِدٌ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي قِلَابَةَ: كَمِ السَّائِمَةُ؟ قَالَ: مِائَةٌ. كَذَا قَالَهُ أَبُو قِلَابَةَ.
Sayyiduna Nubayshah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A man called out to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): In the Jahiliyyah we used to slaughter animals in the month of Rajab; what do you (peace and blessings be upon him) command us concerning it? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Slaughter for Allah in whichever month you wish, feed people, and attain righteousness." The man said: In the Jahiliyyah we used to slaughter the fara'; what do you (peace and blessings be upon him) command us concerning it? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In every grazing flock there is a fara'. Feed it from your livestock, and when it becomes a full-grown camel, slaughter it and give its meat in charity." Khalid said: I think it is to be given in charity to travellers; this is better.
وَقَدْ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ السُّكَّرِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ، أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ الرَّمَادِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أنبأ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ خُثَيْمٍ، عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ مَاهَكَ، عَنْ حَفْصَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْفَرَعَةِ مِنْ كُلِّ خَمْسِينَ وَاحِدَةٌ. كَذَا فِي كِتَابِي، وَفِي رِوَايَةِ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَغَيْرِهِ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ: " فِي كُلِّ خَمْسٍ وَاحِدَةٌ ". وَرَوَاهُ حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ وَقَالَ: " مِنْ كُلِّ خَمْسِينَ شَاةً شَاةٌ ".
Sayyidah Hafsah bint Abd al-Rahman narrates from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered "the fara'ah: one out of every fifty." In the narration of Hajjaj bin Muhammad and others from Ibn Jurayj: one out of every five.
Hammad bin Salamah narrated it from Abdullah bin Uthman bin Khuthaym and said: one sheep out of every fifty sheep.

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، ثنا دَاوُدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ح. قَالَ: وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَنْبَارِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، وَعَنْ دَاوُدَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أُرَاهُ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ: سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْعَقِيقَةِ، فَذَكَرَهُ. وَقَالَ: وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الْفَرَعِ قَالَ: " وَالْفَرَعُ حَقٌّ وَأَنْ تَتْرُكُوهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ بَكْرًا شَعُوبًا ابْنَ مَخَاضٍ أَوِ ابْنَ لَبُونٍ، فَتُعْطِيَهُ أَرْمَلَةً أَوْ تَحْمِلَ عَلَيْهِ، أَوْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَذْبَحَهُ فَيَلْزَقَ لَحْمُهُ بِوَبَرِهِ، تَكْفَأَ إِنَاءَكَ، وَتُوَلِّهَ نَاقَتَكَ ".
Amr bin Shu'ayb narrates from his father, and he from his grandfather (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As, may Allah be pleased with them both), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the aqiqah and the fara', and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The fara' is a right. Leave it until it becomes a full-grown camel, then give it to widows, or let it be given as a mount in the path of Allah. This is better than slaughtering it while its flesh is still stuck to its hair, and you overturn your vessel and leave your she-camel bereaved."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ شَيْبَانَ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، ثنا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَوْ عَمِّهِ قَالَ: شَهِدْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِعَرَفَةَ وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الْعَقِيقَةِ فَقَالَ: " لَا أُحِبُّ الْعُقُوقَ، وَمَنْ وُلِدَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ وَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْسُكَ عَنْهُ فَلْيَنْسُكْ ". وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الْعَتِيرَةِ فَقَالَ: " حَقٌّ ". وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الْفَرَعِ فَقَالَ: " حَقٌّ، وَلَيْسَ هُوَ أَنْ تَذْبَحَهُ عُرَاةً مِنْ عُرَاةٍ، وَلَكِنْ تُمَكِّنُهُ مِنْ مَالِكَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ ابْنَ لَبُونٍ أَوِ ابْنَ مَخَاضٍ زُخْرُبًّا - يَعْنِي ذَبَحْتَهُ - وَذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَكْفَأَ إِنَاءَكَ، وَتُوَلِّهَ نَاقَتَكَ، وَتَذْبَحَهُ يَخْتَلِطُ لَحْمُهُ بِشَعَرِهِ ". وَرَوَاهُ عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ فَقَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ: " وَأَنْ تَتْرُكَهُ تَحْتَ أُمِّهِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ ابْنَ لَبُونٍ أَوِ ابْنَ مَخَاضٍ ".
Zayd bin Aslam (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from a man, who narrates from his father or his uncle (may Allah be pleased with him), that he said: I was present with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at Arafat. He (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the aqiqah, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I do not like 'uquq. Whoever has a child born to him and wishes to slaughter an animal, let him do so." He (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the atirah, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is a right." He (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the fara', and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is valid, but it should not be slaughtered right at the start; rather, keep it among your wealth until it becomes a full-grown camel and then slaughter it. That is better than overturning your vessel, leaving your she-camel bereaved, and slaughtering it while its flesh is mixed with its hair."
(b) Abd al-Jabbar bin al-Ala' (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sufyan (may Allah have mercy on him): Let that young one drink its mother's milk until it is two or three years old.

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ⦗٥٢٥⦘ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى بْنِ أَبِي قُمَاشٍ، ثنا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ السَّهْمِيِّ، ثنا زُرَارَةُ بْنُ كَرِيمِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَهُ، قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِعَرَفَاتٍ، أَوْ قَالَ: بِمِنًى وَقَدْ أَطَافَ بِهِ النَّاسُ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ فِيهِ: وَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنِ الْعَتِيرَةِ فَقَالَ: " مَنْ شَاءَ عَتَرَ وَمَنْ شَاءَ لَمْ يَعْتِرْ، وَمَنْ شَاءَ فَرَّعَ وَمَنْ شَاءَ لَمْ يُفَرِّعْ ". وَقَالَ: " فِي الْغَنَمِ أُضْحِيَّتُهَا ". وَوَصَفَ لَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ وَاحِدَةً.
Harith bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at Arafat or Mina, and people had gathered around him (peace and blessings be upon him). A man asked him (peace and blessings be upon him) about the atirah, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever wishes may slaughter an animal, and whoever does not wish need not; and whoever wishes may slaughter the young of a goat, and whoever does not wish need not." And concerning sheep he said: "In sheep, its sacrifice," and Abu Ma'mar explained it to us by pointing with his index finger: one.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ بْنُ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ الدَّيْنُورِيُّ، ثنا خَلَفُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، ثنا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ وَكِيعِ بْنِ عُدُسٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَمِّي أَبُو رَزِينٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَذْبَحُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ذَبَائِحَ فَنَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا وَنُطْعِمُ مَنْ جَاءَنَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ ". قَالَ وَكِيعٌ: لَا أَدَعُهَا أَبَدًا. وَرَوَاهُ غَيْرُهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ فَقَالَ: ذَبَحْنَا فِي رَجَبٍ.
Abu Razin (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah, in the Jahiliyyah we used to slaughter animals, eat from them and also feed those who came to us. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no harm in that." Waki' (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I will never abandon it. Others narrated it from Abu Awanah and said: We used to slaughter animals in Rajab.
أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، ثنا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ، ثنا رَوْحٌ، ثنا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، ثنا أَبُو رَمْلَةَ، عَنْ مِخْنَفِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ الْغَامِدِيِّ، قَالَ: كُنَّا وُقُوفًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِعَرَفَاتٍ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: " يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ عَلَى كُلِّ أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ أُضْحِيَّةٌ وَعَتِيرَةٌ، هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الْعَتِيرَةُ؟ هِيَ الَّتِي تُسَمَّى الرَّجَبِيَّةَ ".
Sayyiduna Mikhnaf bin Sulaym al-Ghamidi (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We were standing with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at Arafat, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people, upon every household each year there is a sacrifice and an atirah. Do you know what the atirah is? It is the animal that you slaughter in the month of Rajab."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أنبأ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَا فَرَعَةَ وَلَا عَتِيرَةَ ". رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَحْيَى.
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "There is no fara' and no atirah."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَدِيبُ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْإِسْمَاعِيلِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَسَنُ هُوَ ابْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا حَبَّانُ، أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَا فَرَعَ وَلَا عَتِيرَةَ ". قَالَ: وَالْفَرَعُ أَوَّلُ نِتَاجٍ كَانَ يُنْتَجُ لَهُمْ، كَانُوا يَذْبَحُونَهُ لِطَوَاغِيتِهِمْ، وَالْعَتِيرَةُ فِي رَجَبٍ. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَبْدَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ.
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "There is no fara' and no atirah." Fara' is a young animal which, after it was born, they used to slaughter in the name of idols, and atirah is an animal that was slaughtered in the month of Rajab.
أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَقِيهُ أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَرْمَوِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ، أنبأ شَافِعُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ، أنبأ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ الطَّحَاوِيُّ، ثنا الْمُزَنِيُّ، ثنا الشَّافِعِيُّ سَمِعْتُهُ ⦗٥٢٦⦘ يَقُولُ: هُوَ شَيْءٌ كَانَ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَطْلُبُونَ بِهِ الْبَرَكَةَ فِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ، فَكَانَ أَحَدُهُمْ يَذْبَحُ بِكْرَ نَاقَتِهِ أَوْ شَاتِهِ فَلَا يَغْذُوهُ رَجَاءَ الْبَرَكَةِ فِيمَا يَأْتِي بَعْدَهُ، فَسَأَلُوا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ: " فَرِّعُوْا إِنْ شِتْئَمْ "، أَيِ اذْبَحُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ، وَكَانُوا يَسْأَلُونَهُ عَمَّا كَانُوا يَصْنَعُونَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ خَوْفًا أَنْ يُكْرَهَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَأَعْلَمَهُمْ أَنَّهُ لَا مَكْرُوهَ عَلَيْهِمْ فِيهِ، وَأَمَرَهُمُ اخْتِيَارًا أَنْ يَغْذُوهُ ثُمَّ يَحْمِلُوا عَلَيْهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ. قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَسْلَمَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي ضَمْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْفَرَعَةِ فَقَالَ: " الْفَرَعَةُ حَقٌّ، وَأَنْ تَغْذُوهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ ابْنَ لَبُونٍ زُخْرُبًّا فَتُعْطِيَهُ أَرْمَلَةً أَوْ تَحْمِلَ عَلَيْهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَكْفَأَ إِنَاءَكَ، وَتُوَلِّهَ نَاقَتَكَ، وَتَأْكُلَهُ يَلْصَقُ لَحْمُهُ بِوَبَرِهِ ". قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: قَوْلُهُ: الْفَرَعَةُ حَقٌّ، مَعْنَاهُ أَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ بِبَاطِلٍ، وَلَكِنَّهُ كَلَامٌ عَرَبِيٌّ يَخْرُجُ عَلَى جَوَابِ السَّائِلِ، وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْهُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ: " لَا فَرَعَةَ وَلَا عَتِيرَةَ "، وَلَيْسَ هَذَا بِاخْتِلَافٍ مِنَ الرِّوَايَةِ، إِنَّمَا هَذَا لَا فَرَعَةَ وَاجِبَةٌ وَلَا عَتِيرَةَ وَاجِبَةٌ، وَالْحَدِيثُ الْآخَرُ يَدُلُّ عَلَى مَعْنَى ذَا أَنَّهُ أَبَاحَ لَهُ الذَّبْحَ وَاخْتَارَ لَهُ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُ أَرْمَلَةً، أَوْ يَحْمِلَ عَلَيْهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَالْعَتِيرَةُ هِيَ الرَّجَبِيَّةُ، وَهِيَ ذَبِيحَةٌ كَانَ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَتَبَرَّرُونَ بِهَا فِي رَجَبٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَا عَتِيرَةَ "، عَلَى مَعْنَى لَا عَتِيرَةَ لَازِمَةٌ، وَقَوْلُهُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ حَيْثُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْعَتِيرَةِ عَلَى مَعْنَى اذْبَحُوا لِلَّهِ فِي أِيِّ شَهْرٍ مَا كَانَ، أَيِ اذْبَحُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ وَاجْعَلُوا الذَّبْحَ لِلَّهِ لَا لِغَيْرِهِ فِي أِيِّ شَهْرٍ مَا كَانَ لَا أَنَّهَا فِي رَجَبٍ دُونَ مَا سِوَاهُ مِنَ الشُّهُورِ.
Al-Muzani said that Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: To bring blessing to their wealth, the people of the Jahiliyyah used to slaughter the young of their she-camel or goat without letting it be nursed. When they asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you wish to slaughter, then do so." They asked because they used to do this in the Jahiliyyah, fearing that Islam might regard it as disliked; so he (peace and blessings be upon him) told them that it is not forbidden, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed them that the young animal should be fed and then be used as a mount in the path of Allah.
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Zayd bin Aslam narrates from a man of Banu Damrah, who narrates from his father, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the fara', and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The fara' is a right. Feed that young one until it becomes a full-grown camel of two or three years, then give it to a widow or use it as a mount in the path of Allah. This is better than overturning your vessels, snatching the young from your she-camel, and its flesh sticking to its hair."
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "The fara' is a right" means that it is not falsehood. And as for what he (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "There is no fara' and no atirah," its purpose is that they are not obligatory, because the other hadith indicates this meaning: that he (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted giving it to a widow or using it as a mount in the path of Allah. And his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying about the atirah, "You may slaughter in whichever month you wish," is because it is slaughtered for Allah; one does not slaughter in the name of anyone else.

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الْكَارِزِيُّ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ: الْفَرَعُ أَوَّلُ شَيْءٍ تُنْتِجُهُ النَّاقَةُ كَانُوا يَذْبَحُونَهُ حِينَ يُولَدُ، فَكَرِهَ ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ: " دَعُوهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ ابْنَ مَخَاضٍ أَوِ ابْنَ لَبُونٍ فَيَصِيرَ لَهُ طَعْمٌ. وَالزُّخْرُبُّ: هُوَ الَّذِي قَدْ غَلُظَ جِسْمُهُ وَاشْتَدَّ لَحْمُهُ، وَقَوْلُهُ: " خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَكْفَأَ إِنَاءَكَ "، يَقُولُ: إِذَا ذَبَحْتَهُ حِينَ تَضَعُهُ أُمُّهُ بَقِيَتِ الْأُمُّ بِلَا وَلَدٍ تُرْضِعُهُ فَانْقَطَعَ لِذَلِكَ لَبَنُهَا، يَقُولُ: فَإِذَا فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ كَفَأْتَ إِنَاءَكَ وَهَرَقْتَهُ، وَقَوْلُهُ: " تُوَلِّهَ نَاقَتَكَ " فَهُوَ ذَبْحُهُ وَلَدَهَا، وَكُلُّ أُنْثَى فَقَدَتْ وَلَدَهَا فَهِيَ وَالِهٌ.
Ali bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Abu Ubayd (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Fara' is the first young of a she-camel, which they used to slaughter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked this and said: "Leave it until it becomes a full-grown camel of two or three years, so that it becomes fit to eat." Zukhrubb is an animal whose body has grown stout and whose flesh has become firm. "(It is) better than overturning your vessel": when you slaughter the she-camel's young, the she-camel is left without her young and her milk dries up. "You make your she-camel bereaved" means slaughtering her young; any female that loses her young is called walih.
