مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَقَّتْ فَاطِمَةُ عَنِ ابْنَيْهَا وَ حَلَقَتْ رُءُوسَهُمَا فِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ وَ تَصَدَّقَتْ بِوَزْنِ الشَّعْرِ وَرِقاًوَ قَالَ كَانَ نَاسٌ يُلَطِّخُونَ رَأْسَ الصَّبِيِّ فِي دَمِ الْعَقِيقَةِ وَ كَانَ أَبِي يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ شِرْكٌ .

Translation

2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Mu‘awiyah ibn Wahab who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that Fatimah (a.s.) offered ‘Aqiqah for her two sons, shaved their heads on the seventh day, and gave in charity equal to the weight of their hairs of leaf (silver or gold).’ He (the Imam) has said that 'people would stain the head of the child with the blood of the animal for ‘Aqiqah and my father would say that it is a practice of pagans.’”
