Question:
We have a call from the brother 'Abd al-Rahman. Please go ahead. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah. May Allah grant you well-being. I am asking the Shaykh about the 'aqiqah. Please, go ahead. I was not employed, so I naturally had no income, and I had children, may Allah preserve them. Now the situation has improved. Should I slaughter the 'aqiqah for each son—two animals—and for the daughter—one animal—all at once, or should I spread it out over periods, meaning every few months, like three or four months? Thank you.

Answer:
According to your ability. Slaughter it according to your ability. If you do it all at once, that is better and more excellent. Yes.
