Big blessings for your little bundle

What a joy to be blessed with a new baby boy. Honour this gift from The Most Merciful by performing the beautiful sacrifice of Aqiqa, which honours the legacy of the Messenger (PBUH).

Aisha (RA) narrated that the Messenger (PBUH) said, "Slaughter two comparable sheep for a male newborn and one sheep for a female." (Hadith Ahmad)

Give your Aqiqa with Human Appeal

We’ve been performing Aqiqas for 32 years, helping you to honour and bless your new baby while providing nutritious meat to other families around the world who are struggling to afford food. It’s a beautiful connection between your family and theirs, continuing the sunnah. Muhammad (PBUH) offered Aqiqas for his grandsons, Hassan and Hussein, and it’s a sunnah all Muslim families are encouraged to continue.

We work in communities where your Aqiqa makes an impact on struggling families. Each of our local teams selects the healthiest, well-cared-for animals and slaughters them according to strict Islamic principles. Entrust your Aqiqa to our three decades of experience, quality, and efficiency, and ensure that your Aqiqa fulfils all the requirements of this beautiful sacrifice.

How does it work

You donate your Aqiqa with Human Appeal. Our specialist staff will decide where the need is highest, and assign your Aqiqa to the community where your sacrifice will make the most impact. We perform Aqiqas in every single one of the 19 countries that we work in.

Within two to three weeks, our local team in that country will perform your Aqiqa, and will immediately distribute the fresh meat to 14 to 18 vulnerable families (depending on the size of the animal), providing each family with two kilograms, helping to nourish their children, and fight hunger and malnutrition.

Once complete, we’ll send you a report to let you know how your Aqiqa helped families to eat well, an honour in the name of your new child. We’ll tell you when and where the sacrifice was completed, and how many people it supported.

Welcome your new baby into the world with the beautiful sunnah of the Messenger (PBUH). Perform your Aqiqa today, and help other families to eat well.
