Is it permissible to slaughter the aqiqah sheep in two different countries and at two different times?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no harm in slaughtering the two sheep for the 'Aqiqah in separate places or in one place, especially if there is a legitimate benefit in doing so. As for the time of slaughter, it is best to do it on the seventh day; if that is not possible, then on the fourteenth, or the twenty-first, otherwise, at any time it becomes feasible.
