Is it obligatory for a person whose child is born on the day of Eid to perform both the 'aqiqah and the udhiyah, or is one sacrifice sufficient for both?

The Shaykh : The consensus of scholars does not make something obligatory by saying it is obligatory, but when they differ on the obligation of something, you find an opinion like this that can be analogized from this category. Specifically, whoever says: "If a person has the bath for major ritual impurity on Friday, the bath for major ritual impurity takes the place of the Friday bath," but whoever holds that the Friday bath is obligatory says that two baths are necessary. This is the opinion of one of the Companions of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), namely Abu Qatadah. When he passed by a boy of his bathing on Friday, he asked him about this bath: "What is it for?" He said: "For major ritual impurity." He said: "Add another bath to it." He mentioned the hadith regarding the Prophet's command to bathe on Friday. From here arises the disagreement. As for the answer that should be adopted, it is obligatory for the one who is able to perform both the 'aqiqah and the udhiyah, and both are necessary. One does not suffice for the other because each of them is obligatory. So if the boy is male and it is Eid, then in that case, he has three sacrifices. Yes, this is the answer.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. Likewise, regarding the Friday bath and the bath for major ritual impurity?

The Shaykh : Two baths are necessary.

The questioner : Two baths?

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : And beware of that.
