Question:
May Allah reward you with good. There is a woman whose family did not complete the sacrifice for her. What is obligatory for her regarding herself? Does she complete it for that, or what? Please guide us to it. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Nothing is obligatory upon her, because the 'aqiqah that people call a tamimah (amulet) is not obligatory; rather, it is recommended. It is recommended for the father to sacrifice for his child: two sheep for a boy and one sheep for a girl. It is a sunnah (recommended practice), and if it is left, there is no sin in it, and it is not obligatory to make it up.
