حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي مَلِيحٍ، عَنْ نُبَيْشَةَ الْهُذَلِيِّ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قُلْتُ: إِنَّا كُنَّا نَعْتِرُ عَتِيرَةً لَنَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ: " اذْبَحُوا فِي أَيِّ (٣) شَهْرٍ مَا كَانَ، وَبَرُّوا اللهَ وَأَطْعِمُوا "، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّا كُنَّا، ، نُفَرِّعُ فَرَعًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ: فِي كُلِّ سَائِمَةٍ فَرَعٌ تَغْذُوهُ مَاشِيَتُكَ، فَإِذَا اسْتَحْمَلَ ذَبَحْتَهُ، وَتَصَدَّقْتَ بِلَحْمِهِ، قَالَ (١) : أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: عَلَى ابْنِ السَّبِيلِ، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ " (٢)،

It is narrated from Nubaisha (may Allah be pleased with him) that once people asked the Prophet (ﷺ), "O Messenger of Allah, in the days of ignorance we used to offer a sacrifice in the month of Rajab. What do you command us regarding this?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You may slaughter (an animal) in the name of Allah in whichever month you wish. Do good deeds for the sake of Allah and feed the people." The companions asked, "O Messenger of Allah, in the days of ignorance we used to also slaughter the firstborn of the animal. What do you command us regarding this?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Every grazing animal has a firstborn which you feed and raise. When it becomes capable of bearing a load, you may slaughter it and give its meat in charity. (He) probably said this for the traveler, that this is better for you."
