Slaughtering the 'Aqiqah at the Feast for the Arrival of a Traveler

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for me to slaughter the 'Aqiqah at a feast for the occasion of my brother's return from a journey?

Answer:
That is not appropriate. It is a feast for the arrival of the traveler, and he makes it an 'Aqiqah. The 'Aqiqah is an act of worship, so it is slaughtered for the sake of the 'Aqiqah, not for the arrival of the traveler.
