AQEEQAH

The wife of the Prophet (PBUH), Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), is reported to have said: "the Prophet(PBUH) did the aqeeqah for al-Hasan and al-Husayn on the seventh day, and gave them names." 

Ibn Hibban, 12/127; Al-Hakim, 4/264

 

Aqeeqah is an act of obedience to Allah which provides a considerate way of declaring the birth. Aqeeqah is an indication of happiness and gratitude to Allah.

 

It is permissible for an adult to have an aqeeqah performed on behalf of himself if this sunnah was not performed as a child. Anas (RA) reported, "Allah's messenger (PBUH) performed the aqeeqah for himslef after he was appointed as prophet."
