Replacing a sacrifice slaughtered before the Eid prayer

ahmad:18812 – Muḥammad b. Jaʿfar > Shuʿbah > al-Aswad b. Qays > Jundub al-Bajalī

[AI] He witnessed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray, then deliver a sermon and say: "Whoever slaughtered before we prayed, let him replace it with another in its place." And he would sometimes say: "Let him replace it with another." "And whoever has not slaughtered, let him slaughter in the name of Allah ﷻ."

أحمد:١٨٨١٢ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جُنْدُبًا الْبَجَلِيَّ يُحَدِّثُ

أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّى، ثُمَّ خَطَبَ فَقَالَ: «مَنْ كَانَ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ، فَلْيُعِدْ مَكَانَهَا أُخْرَى». وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ: «فَلْيُعِدْ أُخْرَى». «وَمَنْ لَا، فَلْيَذْبَحْ عَلَى اسْمِ اللهِ ﷻ».

That he witnessed the Prophet ﷺ on the Day of Nahr.

مسلم:١٩٦٠d – حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ سَمِعَ جُنْدَبًا الْبَجَلِيَّ قَالَ

شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَّى يَوْمَ أَضْحًى ثُمَّ خَطَبَ فَقَالَ مَنْ كَانَ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ فَلْيُعِدْ مَكَانَهَا وَمَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ ذَبَحَ فَلْيَذْبَحْ بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ
