Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I have a son for whom I did not slaughter an 'aqiqah, and my financial affairs were difficult at that time. Now he is two years old. Is it permissible for me to slaughter the 'aqiqah for him?
Answer:
Yes, there is no obstacle to you slaughtering it for him, as long as he is still young. If he has not reached puberty, that is the time for the 'aqiqah for him. Yes.
