Aqiqah is an Islamic practice associated with welcoming and giving thanks for the birth of a child.
It traditionally involves the sacrifice of an appropriate animal, with the meat then shared and distributed according to Islamic guidance and local practice.
For families in the UK and elsewhere who wish to arrange their Aqiqah in Pakistan, Green Roots Foundation can provide a convenient way to make the appropriate payment and arrange the charitable distribution of meat.
Your Aqiqah can therefore mark an important family occasion while also sharing food with people in need.

Many parents begin looking into Aqiqah for their newborn soon after the birth of their child.
If you would like Green Roots Foundation to arrange the charitable element of your baby’s Aqiqah in Pakistan, you can use our dedicated Aqiqah donation option.
Before completing your donation, check the current Aqiqah options available and provide any information requested on the donation form.
Green Roots Foundation can then arrange the Aqiqah according to its confirmed programme and distribute the designated meat appropriately.
Parents often search specifically for information about Aqiqah for a boy.
Islamic traditions contain guidance concerning Aqiqah and the number of animals associated with boys and girls. However, details concerning what is required, recommended and possible where a family has limited means can involve jurisprudential considerations.
Green Roots Foundation should present the specific options supported by its Aqiqah programme on the donation form.
If you are uncertain about what you should arrange for your son, seek advice from a suitably qualified Islamic scholar before making your donation.
Green Roots Foundation can also help families arrange Aqiqah for a baby girl in Pakistan.
As with Aqiqah for a boy, the donation form should clearly show the available option, what is included and how the meat will be distributed.
If you have questions concerning the religious requirements that apply to your circumstances, seek appropriate qualified Islamic guidance.
There is Islamic guidance concerning the preferred timing of Aqiqah after the birth of a child, alongside jurisprudential discussion about circumstances where it cannot be performed at that preferred time.
For that reason, Green Roots Foundation should avoid suggesting that an Aqiqah is automatically invalid if it is not arranged on one particular day.
If your child is older or the preferred time has already passed, seek qualified Islamic guidance if you are uncertain about arranging the Aqiqah later.
Green Roots Foundation can then facilitate the service where it is appropriate to do so.
