1514. 'Ubaidullāh bin Abī Rāfi' narrated that his father said: "I saw
the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say the Adhān in the ear of Al-Ḥasan bin ‘Alī – when he was born to Fāṭimah – the Adhān of Ṣalāt.” (Da’if)
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is [Hasan] Ṣaḥīh. And it is acted upon [regarding the ‘Aqīqah]. Through other routes, it has been reported from the Prophet ﷺ: For a boy two sheep are sufficient, and for a girl, one sheep. And it has also been reported: That he had one sheep for the ‘Aqīqah for Al-Ḥasan bin ‘Alī. Some of the people of knowledge followed this Hadīth.

Commentary
Immediately after the birth of a child, ‘Adhān should be called in the right ear of the baby. ‘Umar bin Abdul Aziz used to say the ‘Adhān in the right ear, and the Iqāmah in the left. Some of the scholars considered this action based on the various narrations which-although weak - strengthen each other, in their view. Shaikh Al-Albānī’s last grade was that it is weak. See Ad-Da’ifah no. 6121.
