Ruling on Making Up the Sacrifice for a Newborn
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
السؤال:
He says: I had four children, but they all passed away while still young. Some of them died during birth, and one of them died after reaching forty days of age. I did not remember the sacrifice for them until I recently heard that it is obligatory. Should I make it up now?
Answer:
It is a recommended practice, not obligatory; it is a confirmed recommended practice. If you perform it, that is better. If you make it up, that is better. May Allah reward you for acting upon the recommended practice.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
