A father performed the 'aqiqah for his son with a single sheep; is it prescribed for the son, after he has grown up, to complete the 'aqiqah with another sheep?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is another questioner who says: My father performed the 'aqiqah for me with one sheep, and I am now grown up. Is it prescribed for me to complete the second 'aqiqah?

The Shaykh:
And I, what?

The questioner:
And I am now grown up, so is it prescribed for me?

The Shaykh:
The time for it has passed. First, the time has passed. Second, this is a right of the child upon his father; it is not your responsibility. Did you not perform the 'aqiqah for yourself?
