The Ruling on Holding a Wedding Feast for the 'Aqiqah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it required that a feast be held when the 'aqiqah is slaughtered, or is it sufficient to give it in charity?
Answer:
He has a choice. If he wishes to hold a feast and invite his neighbors, brothers, and the poor, there is no harm in that. If he wishes to distribute it and keep some for himself and his family, there is no harm in that either. However, he must not exclude the poor; either he invites them or he gives them some of the meat, for the poor have a share in it. Yes.
