7ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الإِحْرَامِ مِنْ أَيِّ الْعَقِيقِ أَفْضَلُ أَنْ أُحْرِمَ فَقَالَ مِنْ أَوَّلِهِ أَفْضَلُ.

7. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn Faddal from Yunus ibn Ya’qub who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah , about al-‘Aqiq and which part of it is more virtuous for assuming the state of Ihram. He (the Imam) said, ‘Its beginning is better for assuming the state of Hiram.’”
