Question
If a son is born via cesarean section on Shabbat, and obviously, it is forbidden to perform the circumcision on Shabbat due to the law of birth through incision, and immediately afterward there is Yom Tov, and we live abroad where there are two days of Yom Tov, do we need to postpone the circumcision until Tuesday?
Answer
The rabbis are divided on this issue, and the custom in practice is not to perform the circumcision.
