وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي خَدِيجَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مُرْتَهَنٌ بِالْفِطْرَةِ وَ كُلُّ مَوْلُودٍ مُرْتَهَنٌ بِالْعَقِيقَةِ".
In the narration of Abu Khadijah from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, that he said: "Every person is held in pledge by their natural disposition (fitrah), and every newborn is held in pledge by their Aqiqah."
