Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner from outside this country asks: Is it permissible to perform the 'aqiqah for a child in a country other than the one in which he was born, due to the high prices of sheep in his home country?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. There is nothing wrong with that if he is a traveler or a resident in that same country. Even if it is not his home country, he may perform the 'aqiqah for his child in the country where he resides.
