Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: If I delayed the 'aqiqah (the sacrifice for a newborn) until the fourteenth day after my son's birth, is it also prescribed that I delay the naming until that day, or do I have the right to name him on the seventh day after his birth?
Answer:
Name him on any day from the day he is born. The 'aqiqah is according to your means and your ability; whenever you are able to do it and can manage it, you perform it. Yes.
