Aqeeqah
Question
What are the conditions for aqeeqah?
Answer
Aqeeqah will be done on the seventh day from birth. For a boy it will be 2 sheep or goats and for a girl it will be one sheep or goat. The animal has to fulfil the criteria that are set out for qurbaani.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
