Different cultures do it at different ages, if at all. In some cultures (like in the US) circumcision is done soon after birth, often before the baby even leaves the hospital. In other cultures it is supposed to be a specific number of days after birth. While in some, it is a rite of passage and is performed on children as they enter puberty. And in some countries, there is a movement for adults to undergo circumcision because of the health benefits.

Does Abraham's covenant of circumcision follow the male or female line?

The question does not read clearly.1) If it is asking whether the males or females in the family get circumcised, the answer is Males:Gen. 17:10 This is My covenant, which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you: every male among you shall be circumcised.2) If it is asking whether the male to be circumcised comes to be circumcised on account of his mother's Jewish-ness or his father's Jewish-ness, the answer is that the mother determines the Jewish-ness of the child and whether or not that child should be circumcised. (This comes from the Talmudic Interpretation of Deut. 7:3-4. Read more at the Related Link.)In the case of a Jewish father and non-Jewish mother, the child will have to be converted prior to being required to be circumcised. He can certainly be circumcised while not being Jewish and convert later, but the requirement to be circumcised only applies at the moment of conversion. If the non-Jewish mother converts before the birth of the child, the child is born Jewish.

How old do Muslim boys have to be to be circumcised?

It is better for circumcision to be done when the child is small, because that is kinder to the child, and so that the child may grow up in a perfect form. There is no report that may be referred to concerning the time of circumcision, and no Sunnah to be followed. there is no reason for a child to be circumcised in Islam at all this was a tradition started by imams,As a matter of fact according to the Qur'an a child is born perfect and no man has a right to interfere with that perfection, There is in fact no kindnes in mutilating the penis of any child at any age However the younger they are when it is done the more cruel and dangerous it is, There is no rule as to the age of circumcision and it is done before puberty.
