Question:
Also, our brother Muhammad Husayn al-Maliki from Jeddah asks Your Eminence, as a continuation of the discussion on the 'aqiqah: If a person is unable to perform the 'aqiqah for his sons or daughters at the time of their birth, does he make it up, even if they have grown up by the time Allah grants him wealth and expands his means?
Answer:
Yes, he makes it up, even if they have grown up. If it becomes easy for him, he slaughters it for the males and the females. And praise be to Allah. Yes.
The presenter: And the situation regarding eating it or distributing it is the same.
The Shaykh: For example, if it was during their youth, for example, if he slaughtered it during their youth, yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
