Question 1

Can I order Aqiqah from Luxembourg City?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Aqiqah is performed entirely in Egypt on your behalf — there is nothing to ship to or from Luxembourg City. You order online from Luxembourg City, we sacrifice in Cairo within 24 hours of payment confirmation, and you receive video proof within 48 hours.

Question 2

Are there other Luxembourg City-based donors using Amanah?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Luxembourg City is one of our active donor communities in Luxembourg. Most learn about us by word of mouth from people who have seen the proof video and shared it with family.

Question 3

Do I need to find a mosque in Luxembourg City to do this through?

Accepted Answer

No. You don't need any intermediary in Luxembourg City. The order is direct from you to Amanah Charity, the sacrifice is in Egypt, and the proof goes straight to your email and WhatsApp.

Question 4

Can I perform Aqiqah from Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Scholars across all four Sunni schools agree that Aqiqah can be performed in any country on your behalf, provided the slaughter is halal and the meat is distributed to those in need. Amanah handles the entire process in Egypt and confirms it to you with video.

Question 5

How do I know the sacrifice was actually done?

Accepted Answer

Within 48 hours of your order we send you a short video of your specific animal at the moment of slaughter, photos of the meat being packed, and a record of the families in Cairo who received it. Your name or your child's name is on the file.

Question 6

Is the meat distributed halal and Islamically valid?

Accepted Answer

The animal is bought from a verified livestock market, healthy, of correct age, and slaughtered by a qualified Muslim slaughterman facing the qiblah with the takbeer recited. Meat is distributed the same day to orphans and widows in Cairo — never sold, never frozen long-term.

Question 7

How long does delivery of proof take?

Accepted Answer

48 hours from confirmed payment. You receive everything by email and, if you provide your number, by WhatsApp. Donors in Ettelbruck typically see proof the morning after their order.

Question 8

Can I pay in EUR?

Accepted Answer

Checkout is in USD for accounting transparency, but your card issuer charged in EUR at the live exchange rate. Most Luxembourgish cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) work without extra fees.

Question 9

Is Aqiqah valid if performed abroad?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Prophet ﷺ himself performed and instructed sacrifice without geographic restriction. What matters is the niyyah (intention) and that the act is halal — both are guaranteed by Amanah's process.

Question 10

When should Aqiqah be performed?

Accepted Answer

The Sunnah is to perform Aqiqah on the seventh day after birth, but it can be performed at any time afterward — including for adults who never had one. There is no expiry on the obligation.

Question 11

How many sheep for a boy and for a girl?

Accepted Answer

The Sunnah is two sheep for a boy and one sheep for a girl. A goat counts the same as a sheep. If two sheep are not affordable, one for a boy is also accepted by the majority of scholars.

Question 12

Can I name my child in the Aqiqah?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Provide the child's name at checkout and it will be recorded on the slaughter file and mentioned in the dedication.

Question 13

Where in Luxembourg do you ship the meat?

Accepted Answer

Nowhere — the meat stays in Egypt, where the need is greatest. You stay in Luxembourg and receive the proof. This is the core of how Amanah works: your money buys food for an orphan in Cairo, not a courier flight across continents.
