حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: زُبَيْدٌ، أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْصُورٌ، (١) وَدَاوُدُ، وَابْنُ عَوْنٍ، وَمُجَالِدٌ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، وَهَذَا حَدِيثُ زُبَيْدٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الشَّعْبِيَّ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ، وَحَدَّثَنَا عِنْدَ سَارِيَةٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، قَالَ: وَلَوْ كُنْتُ ثَمَّ لَأَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِمَوْضِعِهَا، قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: " إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا نَبْدَأُ بِهِ فِي يَوْمِنَا هَذَا أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ، ثُمَّ نَرْجِعَ فَنَنْحَرَ، فَمَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ، فَقَدْ أَصَابَ سُنَّتَنَا، وَمَنْ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ، فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ لَحْمٌ قَدَّمَهُ لِأَهْلِهِ لَيْسَ مِنَ النُّسُكِ فِي شَيْءٍ " قَالَ: وَذَبَحَ خَالِي أَبُو بُرْدَةَ بْنُ نِيَارٍ، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ذَبَحْتُ وَعِنْدِي جَذَعَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ مُسِنَّةٍ، قَالَ: " اجْعَلْهَا مَكَانَهَا، وَلَنْ (٢) تُجْزِئَ، - أَوْ تُوفِي - عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ " (٣)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that once (on the day of Eid al-Adha) the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) addressed us and said: Today, we will begin the day by offering the prayer, then return home and perform the sacrifice. Whoever does so has reached our way, and whoever performs the sacrifice before the Eid prayer, it is merely meat that he has given to his family beforehand; it has nothing to do with the sacrifice. My uncle, Abu Burdah bin Niyar (may Allah be pleased with him), had already slaughtered his animal before the Eid prayer. He said, O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! I have already slaughtered my animal, but now I have a six-month-old lamb which is better than a year-old animal. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, Sacrifice this in its place, but this will not suffice for anyone other than you.
