The is a confirmed . The Sunnah is for it to be slaughtered on the seventh day. If that is not possible, then on the fourteenth day. If that is not possible, then on the twenty-first day. If that is not possible, then on any day thereafter. If it is slaughtered before or after these specified days, it is still valid. If the birth was on Thursday dawn, the Aqiqah would be on Wednesday. If it was on Friday dawn, the Aqiqah would be on Thursday, noting that the night precedes the day.
