It is narrated through Amr ibn Shu'ayb from his father from his grandfather (Hadrat Abdullah ibn Amr, may Allah be well pleased with them both) that the Beloved Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was asked about the Aqiqah. He stated: Allah does not love Uquq (disobedience) — as though he disliked the name itself — and stated: Whoever has a child born to him and wishes to offer a sacrifice (Nusuk) on its behalf, let him sacrifice two comparable sheep for a boy and one sheep for a girl. He was also asked about the Fara'. He stated: The Fara' is a right. But if you leave it until it becomes a strong, healthy young camel — one or two years old — and then give it to a needy widow or use it as a mount in the path of Allah, that is better than slaughtering it (while still so small) that its meat clings to its hair (i.e., is scant), and you empty your pot (having nothing to cook), and cause grief to your she-camel by separating her from her young.
