Aqiqah is a prophetic tradition passed down from our beloved Prophet Muhammad (saw),
Aqiqa is a beautiful tradition where a sheep or a goat is sacrificed upon the birth of a baby, expressing gratitude for the precious gift of a new life and the abundant blessings bestowed upon the family by Allah (swt).
Performing Aqiqa is not only a form of sadaqah but also a means of protecting your baby and earning abundant rewards by providing food for those in need. Embrace the arrival of your little one and show gratitude to Allah (swt) by carrying out your Aqiqah.
Today, with iHuman Foundation, you can make a meaningful impact from just £75 for a baby girl and £150 for a baby boy. Join us in spreading compassion and joy.
SADAQAH SACRIFICE
Some people choose to give sadaqah sacrifices as an act of thanks to Allah (swt) if they have been saved from harm.
Sadaqah sacrifice is often offered in various circumstances, such as upon securing a new job, being saved from an accident or severe illness. Many also perform this sacrifice to seek protection from illness or the evil eye, relying on Allah’s (swt) mercy and protection.
Similar to Aqiqa, your sadaqah sacrifice serves as a means of earning rewards and blessings for you, while also providing nourishment to those living in poverty. By contributing to this noble act, you promote good health, nutrition, and survival among the less fortunate.

Important Questions About Aqiqah
Aqiqah is the act of sacrificing an animal to mark the occasion of a child’s birth. Ideally, this should be performed seven days after the birth of the child.
“Aqeeqah is the child’s rescue from Satan and protection for his efforts for the good of his life Hereafter.” (Faid al-Qadir)
Traditionally, a goat or sheep may be sacrificed for Aqiqah, and it can also be a cow or camel. The selection of animal is often dependent on the location. Just like the conditions of sacrifice for Qurbani, that animal must be in good health and be slaughtered in a humane way in line with Islamic guidance.
It is the sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (saw) to shave the baby’s head as a means of purification and the symbol of a new beginning for a Muslim child.
The hair is weighed, and Sadaqah is given to the poor in accordance to the weight of the hair.
The value of this is calculated by donating the amount equivalent to the same weight in silver to the poor. This works out to be approximately £10 at the moment.
Performing Aqiqah following the birth of a child is highly recommended for the parent or guardian. This is beneficial, as it helps to unite loved ones and communities on this special occasion.
It also gives us an opportunity to share our celebrations with those less fortunate than ourselves – such as orphans and those in need – by offering the meat from the sacrifice with them.
