The 'Aqiqah for One Who Died Before the Seventh Day

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If someone dies after the sixth day and before the seventh, is it prescribed to perform the 'aqiqah on his behalf?

The Shaykh:
Who died, what?

The questioner:
After the sixth day, and before reaching the seventh day, is it prescribed to perform the 'aqiqah on his behalf?

The Shaykh:
Yes, he performs the 'aqiqah on his behalf. If he was born alive, he performs the 'aqiqah and gives him a name, even if he died. Yes.
