The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.
The questioner : I say, Shaykh, may Allah prolong your life. My father is asking you about the 'aqiqah. Is it, for example, if one passes the time and performs it after the time has passed, is there a problem with that?
The Shaykh : Is he poor or rich?
The questioner : Young, very young.
The Shaykh : Yes, is he poor or are you?
The questioner : His situation, praise be to Allah, is average, praise be to Allah.
The Shaykh : Why, why did he delay it past its time?
The questioner : Due to specific circumstances.
