Aqeeqah for Adult

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by CouncilofUlama.co.za

Q: If a adult girl finds out that her parents didn’t make aqeeqah for her when she was small because of financial difficulty, can the adult girl make aqeeqah for herself now that she’s older?

A: Aqeeqah is not compulsory rather it is Mustahab. If one has the means and one can manage doing an Aqeeqah then this may be done. However this should not be at the expense of other obligations like one’s Wajib Qurbani.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
