The Aqiqah is only valid if it is slaughtered specifically for that purpose. It must meet the same specifications as an Udhiyah (sacrificial animal). There is no impediment to entrusting a kitchen owner or another person to slaughter and prepare it, provided the conditions are met. However, purchasing the meat after it has been slaughtered is not valid.
