"Dream - A newborn baby usually comes with several traditions that are observed. Especially in Indonesia, where customs and traditions are still strong. Nevertheless, Islam teaches that parents should perform aqiqah for their child, along with giving a good name. In this aqiqah ceremony, usually close relatives will gather while eating together to celebrate the birth of the child. One thing that is not overlooked is prayer, which involves reciting the tasmiyah prayer or the naming prayer."

"This serves as a way to celebrate and show gratitude for the birth of a child, while also symbolizing the importance of sacrifice. Aqiqah is rooted in Islamic teachings, with its origins found in various hadiths and traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). These sources emphasize the significance of aqiqah as an act of worship and an expression of gratitude to Allah."

During aqiqah, certain animals, such as sheep or goats, will be sacrificed. This act symbolizes the willingness to sacrifice something valuable for the sake of Allah SWT. The meat from the sacrificed animal is then distributed among family members and friends.

"When giving a name to a child, parents in the Archipelago recite prayers so that the child receives protection and blessings from Allah SWT. This prayer serves as a reminder for parents that every aspect of their child's life should begin and end with the mention of Allah's name. For example, the prayer for naming a child in Indonesia usually starts with reciting the basmalah, followed by sentences requesting protection and blessings from Allah for the child who has just been named."

"Basically, raising a prayer to Allah is a way to acknowledge that a child is a gift and blessing from Him, and that only Allah can provide the protection and blessings that a child truly needs. The importance of the tasmiyah prayer or the naming of a child emphasizes that the protection and blessings from Allah are the most essential things in a child's life."

Here is the translated text with the HTML tags preserved: "Here is how to say the aqiqah prayer for a child according to the Sunnah. اللّهُمّ هَذَا مِن قَابِلٍ، وَأَنتَ الرّزّاقُ فَارْزُقْهُ. Meaning: "O Allah, this is a part of acceptance (of a male child) and You are the Bestower, so grant him sustenance."

**This aqiqah prayer is recommended to be performed on the 7th day after the child's birth. The recitation of this aqiqah prayer is important to strengthen the relationship between parents and Allah SWT and to express gratitude for His blessings. By including the recitation of the tasmiyah prayer along with its translation in Arabic and Latin, we can carry out Islamic traditions in accordance with the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. May by reciting this aqiqah prayer, our family is always blessed by Allah SWT.**
