What is the ruling on disposing of a portion of the 'Aqiqah that was designated for a specific person, then was mistakenly disposed of?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Merely intending to do good or an act of obedience does not necessitate anything, especially if the act was not completed due to an error. It is hoped that Allah will record the reward for that. As stated in the : "And whoever intended to do a good deed but did not do it, Allah records it for him as a complete good deed." This applies if the intention was not accompanied by a vow. However, if a vow was made, it is obligatory to fulfill it, as Allah Almighty says: ﴿And let them fulfill their vows﴾.
