Is it permissible to combine the intention of the Aqiqah and the Udhiyah together on Eid al-Adha, and is the Aqiqah valid?
The jurists differed on the issue of whether one sacrifice suffices for both the (sacrifice of Eid al-Adha) and the (sacrifice for a newborn), with two opinions:
The first: It suffices. This is the view of the Hanafis and one of the two narrations from Imam Ahmad. They likened this to performing the two rak'ahs of "Tahiyyat al-Masjid" (greeting the mosque prayer) along with the prayer of the obligatory (Fard) prayer.
The second: It does not suffice. This is the view of the Malikis, Shafi'is, and the other narration from Imam Ahmad. Their argument is that each has a different reason (for its legislation).
What appears to be the case is that a single sacrifice suffices with the intention of both the Aqiqah and the Udhiyah together.
