AQIQA - April Meeting Rescheduled
We will move our April meeting to the second Saturday (April 9), due to activities scheduled in the mosque. There will be an aqiqa at 7pm in the mosque on our regular meeting day.
On the seventh day after the birth of a child Aqīqa is performed. Family friends and other Muslim should be invited. ‘Aqīqa consists of giving a name to the baby, shaving its hair, and offering a sacrifice. It is recommended that the new-born baby should be given either a compound name containing one of the most beautiful names of God (e.g. ‘Abd al-Hamīd), or the name of one of the fourteen Ma’sūms or another holy figure; or that a name should be found from the Qur’ān.
