Aqiqah card design and invitation pages
Write an aqiqah invitation in Bangla: a page with the baby's name, date and address, a map and an RSVP form. Send the link on WhatsApp, free.
- Make my son's aqiqah invitation. Name Muhammad Ayan Rahman, father Mahbubur Rahman, mother Farzana Akter. Friday after Jumma, at our home, Sheikhpara, Khulna. Put Bismillah at the top.
- An aqiqah invitation for my daughter, from her maternal grandparents' house: granddaughter Humayra, the meal at 1 pm, Mia Bari, Daganbhuiyan, Feni. Invited by Nana and Nanu.
- An aqiqah for twin boys, one invitation: Ariyan and Ayaz. Saturday at noon, Taj Community Centre, Rajshahi. Green and gold, a calm design.
Can I make an aqiqah invitation card on my phone and send it to relatives as a link?
Yes. Write the baby's name, the parents' names, and the aqiqah's date, time and address in Bangla. You get an aqiqah invitation page: the invitation on top, a map link below, a countdown to the day and a form for guests to say they are coming. Publish it free and post the link in the family WhatsApp group. A picture card is possible too.
Three steps to an aqiqah invitation
- Write the names, date and address: The baby's full name as you are giving it, the parents' names, the date, weekday, time and address. If you want the Hijri date, write that yourself too.
- Check it: When the page appears, check the spelling of the baby's name, the weekday beside the date, and press the map link once. To change colours or words, say so in Bangla.
- Publish and post in the group: Publish the page free in one press and post the link in the family WhatsApp group, and send it to the elders separately.
A newborn at home leaves no time to run to the press for aqiqah cards
The days after a birth are busy already: care for mother and baby, doctors, visitors. When the aqiqah date is set the invitations must go out fast, yet printing cards means looking at samples, fixing spelling and going back to collect them. Getting a card to a distant relative's house takes days.
The invitation page takes a few minutes, phone in hand, from your bed. One message reaches the whole family, uncles abroad included. And if the time or place changes, everyone sees the new version at the same link.
What the aqiqah invitation page will have
- Bismillah at the top if you want it, then two warm lines of invitation in the respectful form
- The baby's name large, with the parents' names; whether it is a boy or a girl shows in the wording itself
- The date, weekday and time, and when the meal is: "after Jumma" or "from 1 pm"
- The address of the home or community centre with a Google Maps link that shows the way on a guest's phone
- A countdown to the aqiqah day
- A form where guests send their name, mobile and how many are coming, so the cooking can be planned ahead
How to word an aqiqah card: a sample invitation
An invitation has a familiar order: Bismillah or a salam, then the good news, then the invitation. For example: "By the mercy of Allah a son has come to our home. We invite you and your family to his aqiqah. Your presence and your prayers are sincerely requested."
Then the baby's name, and under "invited by" the parents' or grandparents' names. In many families the invitation goes out in the grandfather's name; ask the elders whose it should be. You need not write this wording yourself; give the details and the page arranges them. Only the names, date and address must come from you; the AI will not invent them.
Aqiqah card design: a picture for WhatsApp too
Many elders do not open links; they look at pictures. Make the same invitation into a picture card for them. Pick "Greeting cards" among the builder's ready prompts and type aqiqah as the occasion, or give the chat the invitation text and ask it to "make a cover with this text". The words are set in a real Bengali font, and it does not count against the day's pictures.
Choose calm colours: white, pale green, cream and gold suit it. One border of a moon and star or a geometric pattern is enough; all of them together looks heavy. For paper cards, download the PNG and take it to a press.
The baby's photo and your home address: think before sharing the link
Once sent, an invitation link can travel from group to group. So decide with the family whether the newborn's photo goes on the page; the invitation looks complete without one. If you must give a home address, give the area and the map link instead of the house number, and add "call when you are close".
When and how to do the aqiqah, and how many animals, are religious questions for your local imam or a scholar. This page is only for getting the invitation out well.
What an aqiqah invitation costs
Making and publishing the page costs nothing. You get up to 400,000 free AI Token a day, and the page stays free at an address like your-name.banglacodes.app. Guests' replies come to your WhatsApp as messages.
Replies as one list instead of WhatsApp messages need lifetime hosting on your own domain (6,999 BDT once) or a plan; one aqiqah does not need it. Printed cards come from a press; we do not print.
Questions about aqiqah cards and invitations
How do I design an aqiqah card on my phone?
Write the baby's name, the parents' names, the date, time and address in Bangla. You get an invitation page; for a picture card, use the greeting card tool with aqiqah as the occasion, download the PNG and send it on WhatsApp.
What should an aqiqah invitation say?
Bismillah or a salam, the good news of the birth, an invitation to the aqiqah for the whole family, the baby's name, the date, weekday, time and address, and at the bottom the names of those inviting.
Should the baby's photo go on the card?
That is the family's decision. A link can travel from group to group, so many people send the invitation without a photo; the page looks good without one.
Can I find out here when the aqiqah should be done?
No, this page gives no religious ruling. Ask your local imam or a scholar about the day, the rules and the animals, then write the date you settle on in the invitation.
How do I know in advance how many are coming?
The invitation page has a form for guests to say they are coming. When a guest sends a name and head count, a message comes to your WhatsApp, and you count from there to plan the cooking.
Can the aqiqah card be printed?
Yes. Download the picture card as a PNG and take it to a nearby press; settle the paper and number of copies with them. We do not print; the design is free here.
