The Ruling on the Family Eating from the Aqeeqah

Question
Is it permissible for the family to eat from the aqeeqah? And how much should be distributed from it?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The aqeeqah is merely an act of devotion like other acts of devotion, it is permissible to eat from it and distribute it as one wishes, and God knows best.
