The Book of al-'Aqiqah
When should the 'Aqiqah be performed?
أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قُرَيْشُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ الشَّهِيدِ، قَالَ لِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِيرِينَ سَلِ الْحَسَنَ مِمَّنْ سَمِعَ حَدِيثَهُ، فِي الْعَقِيقَةِ . فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ، سَمُرَةَ .
It was narrated from Habib bin Ash-Shahid: "Muhammad bin Sirin said to me: 'Ask Al-Hasan (Al-Basri) from whom he heard this Hadith about the 'Aqiqah.' I asked him about that and he said: 'I heard it from Samurh."'
