The time of the Aqeeqah Q. Is the time span for the Aqeeqah a week or two or twentyone days as is mentioned? So for example is it permissible to sacrifice the Aqeeqah on the ninth or tenth day? A. It is best performed on the seventh day as is mentioned in the Hadeeth, if that is missed the scholars have stated that it should be performed on the fourteenth day, if that is also missed then on the twenty first day. After this weeks are not considered. This is according to that most preferred, for if it is sacrificed on the sixth, fifth, tenth or fifteenth day, there is no blame upon him. Sheikh Ibn Uthaimeen [Fataawa Islaamiyyah: 4/488]
