Question:
Your Eminence, father, he says: Should one perform the 'aqiqah for a fetus that is aborted dead?
Answer:
If it reaches four months, it takes on the ruling of a human being in terms of the funeral: it is washed, shrouded, prayed over, and buried in the Muslim cemeteries. It is given a name; his father gives it a name, and he also performs the 'aqiqah for it. He performs the 'aqiqah for it by slaughtering a sacrificial animal. This is from the Sunnah. Yes.
