Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on the 'aqiqah, and to whom is it distributed?
Answer:
The 'aqiqah is a recommended practice (sunnah). It is distributed in three parts: one-third is eaten by the family and those who stand in for them; one-third is given as a gift to friends and neighbors; and one-third is given in charity to the poor.
