Nevertheless, if you are unable to perform it on a Friday, then there is no sin upon you if you choose to perform it on another day. The aqiqah will still be considered valid, even though it is not the same, in terms of reward and desirability, as performing it on the 7th, 14th, or 21st day. Just because you cannot carry out the aqiqah on a Friday, that should not prevent you from performing it on another day, because you will still attain the reward for it.<a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\" title=\"\"><sup><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/sup><\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Only Allah knows best<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Written by Maulana Mohammad Ahsan Osmani<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Checked and approved by Mufti Mohammed Tosir Miah<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Darul Ifta Birmingham<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\" \/>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\" title=\"\"><sup><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/sup><\/a> Behishti Zewar (English): p. 293 (Darul Isha&rsquo;at); Fatawa Darul Uloom Deoband: v. 15, p. 606-607 and p. 617 (Darul Isha&rsquo;at); Fatawa Mahmudia: v. 26, p. 415-418 (Darul Isha&rsquo;at); Fatawa Darul Uloom Zakariya: v. 6, p. 484-487 (Zam Zam Publishers); Aap Key Masaail Aur Un Kaa Hal: v. 5, p. 488-489 (Maktaba Ludyanawi)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fatwa ID: 03158 Answered by:&nbsp;Maulana Mohammad Ahsan Osmani\u200b Question: If someone is having trouble getting the aqiqah done on the 7th, 14th, etc&#8230; days because&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[6],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12775"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12775"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12775\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12810,"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12775\/revisions\/12810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12775"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12775"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12775"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
