Aqiqah Rules for Newborns Explained
According to the Egyptian Dar Al-Iftaa, the ruling on sacrificing the 'Aqiqah for both male and female newborns is that it is a confirmed Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him and his family. It is recommended to perform it for the newborn, whether male or female. The ideal is to sacrifice two sheep for a male, and one sheep for a female. Although 'Aqiqah is not obligatory, it is considered recommended for the sake of good reward and blessings. It is preferable to perform the sacrifice on the seventh day after birth; if that is not possible, then on the fourteenth or twenty-first day. It is also permissible to delay the sacrifice beyond these dates without sin. The meat of the 'Aqiqah can be distributed as food, gifts, charity, or some of it can be saved. It is recommended to fulfill its purposes by feeding others and providing for those in need. While neglecting the 'Aqiqah is not considered sinful for someone capable of performing it, missing out on its reward and blessings is a loss.
