Making aqeeqah for the deceased
Question
Can we offer aqeeqah on a dead person name? Can we eat that meat?
Answer
There is no need, but if it is done for him then its meat is edible.
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.
