Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ كَاسِبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ مُوسَى، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ يَزِيدَ بْنَ عَبْدٍ الْمُزَنِيَّ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ يُعَقُّ عَنِ الْغُلاَمِ وَلاَ يُمَسُّ رَأْسُهُ بِدَمٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Yaʿqūb ibn Ḥumayd ibn Kāṣib narrated to us: ʿAbd Allāh ibn Wahb narrated to us: ʿAmr ibn al-Ḥārith told me, from Ayyūb ibn Mūsā, who said that Yazīd ibn ʿAbd al-Muzanī narrated to him that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: An ʿaqīqah is offered for a boy, and his head is not touched with blood.
