Arabic (Original)
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْمِهْرَجَانِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمُزَكِّي ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ ثنا مَالِكٌ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي ضَمْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْعَقِيقَةِ فَقَالَ لَا أُحِبُّ الْعُقُوقَ وَكَأَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا كَرِهَ الِاسْمَ وَقَالَ مَنْ وُلِدَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ فَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْسُكَ عَنْ وَلَدِهِ فَلْيَفْعَلْ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَهَذَا إِذَا انْضَمَّ إِلَى الْأَوَّلِ قَوِيَا وَقَدْ عَلَّقَ فِيهِمَا ذَلِكَ بِمَحَبَّتِهِ
English Translation
Abu Ahmad al-Mihrajani informed us > Abu Bakr ibn Ja'far al-Muzakki > Muhammad ibn Ibrahim > Ibn Bukayr > Malik > Zayd ibn Aslam > a man from Banu Damrah > his father: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was asked about the aqiqah and said: 'I do not like disobedience (al-uquq)' — as if he disliked the name. He said: 'Whoever has a child born to him and wishes to offer a sacrifice for his child, let him do so.' The scholar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: When this is combined with the previous hadith, they strengthen each other, and in both he made it conditional upon one's desire.
