Delaying the 'Aqeeqah past the 7th Day is opposed to the Sunnah

Question :

An Aqeeqah was given after the death of a little girl and her age at the time of her death was a year and a half. Was the 'Aqeeqah performed according to its natural way or not? Does this little girl benefit her parents in the Hereafter? Please give us a beneficial answer concerning this?

Answer:

Yes, this 'Aqeeqah is acceptable, but delaying past the 7th day after the child's birth is opposed to the Sunnah. Also, every male or female child that dies while they are young, Allâh will cause them to benefit whoever was patient among their believing parents.
