    It is no farz not is it a Sunnah. It was a practice in Arab and the prophet let his followers do it as a sign of their gratitude to God for having children.

    Refer to the following video.

    Yes, it is according to one’s means and choice. You may do charity instead. It is all about showing your gratitude to Allah by paying tribute to Him.
