Arabic term or phrase: مرتهن بعقيقته
العبارة مأخوذة من حديث وبحثت في النهاية في غريب الحديث ووجدت الآتي:
فيه : كل غلام رهينة بعقيقته - الرهينة : الرهن, والهاء للمبالغة, كالشتيمة والشتم, ثم استعمل بمعنى المرهون ... ومعناه أن العقيقة لازمة له لا بد منها , فشبه في لزومها له وعدم انفكاكه منها بالرهن في يد المرنهن...
وذهب أحمد ابن حنبل إلى أنه في الشفاعةو يريد أنه إذا لم يعق عنه فمات طفلا لم يشفع في والديه. وقيل معناه أنه مرهون بأذى شعره واستدلوا بقوله: فأميطوا عنه الأذى, وهو ما علق به من دم الرحم
