Assalamu Alaikum,
I would like to perform Aqeeqah for my children and I have two questions:
1. Can money be given as charity to the needy instead of cutting goat for performing aqeeqah?
2. Is shaving of head mandatory after performing aqeeqah and if the child is a girl should her head also be shaved?
Shukriya,
Your brother in Islam
