Aqeeqah Programs : All India Muslim Youth Majlis

You are at : >> >> >> Aqeeqah Programs

Children are a blessing and they bring joy and happiness when they enter our lives. The birth of a child is a time to rejoice and give thanks to the Creator by sharing with the hungry and the destitute. Aqeeqah is a gracious program by which new parents and family members can celebrate the miracle of birth while making charitable work one of the first actions done on the child’s behalf.

All India Muslim Youth Majlis facilitates the Islamic tradition of Aqeeqah by dedicating the best quality sheep and goats and distributing fresh meat to needy families in communities where we work, on behalf of the grateful parents of a newborn child.
Donors can arrange Aqeeqah on behalf of their own children or as a gift for loved ones from any part of the World. The parents will receive a photo of a banner with the child’s name and date of birth, taken with the deserving, thankful beneficiaries of the distribution.
It is mentioned in Ahadith that when a baby is born the parents should perform Aqeeqah for the child by slaughtering two goats or sheep for a boy and one sheep or goat for a girl. The Aqeeqah should be performed on the seventh day after the child is born according to the Sunnah method, but the Aqeeqah can be performed after this day but the Fuqahaa say that it will not earn the same amount of rewards.

Aishah (RA) is quoted to have said: "The Prophet (Peace be upon him) did Aqeeqah (welcoming feast) for Al-Hasan and Al-Husayn on the seventh day, and gave them names." (Narrated by Ibn Hibban, 12/127; Al-Hakim, 4/264. Classed as Saheeh by Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar in Fath Al-Bari, 9/589) [Surah al-Baqarah: 261]

We need at least 7 days notice if you want the Aqiqah to be done on a specific date.

Aqeeqah Programs		Qurbani
Children are a blessing and they bring joy and happiness when they enter our lives. The birth of a child is a time to rejoice and give thanks to the Creator by sharing with the hungry and the destitute. Aqeeqah is a gracious program by which new parents and family members can celebrate the miracle of birth while making charitable work one of the first actions done on the child’s behalf. More...		TQurbani or sacrifice is also known as Udhiyyah. It is Wajib upon all mature Muslims who, on the day of `Eid al-Adha, possess Nisab. Whoever qualifies for this is required to purchase a sheep or goat of more than one year in age, and slaughter that in the name of Allah after the `Eid prayer preferably on the same day. More...
Ramadan		Sadaqah
Among the five pillars of Islam, the fourth pillar is dedicated to preach fasting during the holy month of Ramadan. Also, known as Ramazan, the word finds it's origin in Arabic language, which denotes the ninth month in the Islamic Calendar called Hijri. More...		This is identical to the Qurbani, the only difference is that this is not a necessary act. The rules of the slaughter are the same as Qurbani. The rewards are the same and the benefits include feeding the poor. This service is available for Aqiqah (sacrifice in gratitude at the birth of a child), Walimah (sacrifice in gratitude at the time of marriage), and all other supererogatory sacrifices. More...
Zakaat		Eid Gift Project
Zakaat is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, is the giving of 2.5% of one's possessions (surplus wealth) to charity, generally to the poor and needy. The Shia double this to 5% of one's possessions. It is often compared to the system of tithing and alms, but it serves principally as the welfare contribution to poor and deprived Muslims, although others may have a rightful share. It is the duty of an Islamic community to distribute it fairly as well. More...		Eid gifts are usually a package of food, some clothes and a toy for the family/children. The aim is to help provide a moment of normality and happiness to those whose lives have been torn apart. More...
