Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it sufficient for the 'aqiqah to be in the form of a feast for which people gather?
Answer:
There is no objection if he slaughters it and invites people to it; there is nothing wrong with that. However, it is better and more complete if he gives it in charity.
