Apostle of Allah, it is the day of meat and it is not desirable (to have longing for it and not to make use of it immediately), so I hastened in offering my animal as a sacrifice, so that I might feed my family and neighbours and my kith and kin. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Offer again your sacrifice. He said: Messenger of Allah, I have a small milch goat of less than one year, and that is better than two dry goats (from which only) meat (can be acquired). Thereupon he said: That is better than the two animals of sacrifice on your behalf, and the sacrifice of a goat, of less than six months shall not be accepted as a sacrifice on behalf of anyone after your (sacrifice).  

أَنْ يَذْبَحَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ هَذَا يَوْمٌ اللَّحْمُ فِيهِ مَكْرُوهٌ وَإِنِّي عَجَّلْتُ نَسِيكَتِي لأُطْعِمَ أَهْلِي وَجِيرَانِي وَأَهْلَ دَارِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَعِدْ نُسُكًا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ عِنْدِي عَنَاقَ لَبَنٍ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ شَاتَىْ لَحْمٍ فَقَالَ هِيَ خَيْرُ نَسِيكَتَيْكَ وَلاَ تَجْزِي جَذَعَةٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delivered a sermon to us on the Day of Nahr and he said: 'None of you should slaughter until he performs the Salat." He said: 'So my maternal uncle stood and said: ' O Messenger of Allah, this is the day in which meat is disliked, and I hastened my sacrifice to feed my family and the people of my dwellings - or - 'my neighbors.' He said: 'Repeat your slaughter with another.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ I have a she-kid that has better meat than my sheep, should I slaughter it?' He said: 'Yes, and it is better and it will suffice for you, but a Jadha' will not be accepted after you.' "  

خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي يَوْمِ نَحْرٍ فَقَالَ لاَ يَذْبَحَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ حَتَّى يُصَلِّيَ قَالَ فَقَامَ خَالِي فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا يَوْمٌ اللَّحْمُ فِيهِ مَكْرُوهٌ وَإِنِّي عَجَّلْتُ نُسُكِي لأُطْعِمَ أَهْلِي وَأَهْلَ دَارِي أَوْ جِيرَانِي قَالَ فَأَعِدْ ذَبْحًا آخَرَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عِنْدِي عَنَاقُ لَبَنٍ وَهِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ شَاتَىْ لَحْمٍ أَفَأَذْبَحُهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ وَهِيَ خَيْرُ نَسِيكَتَيْكَ وَلاَ تُجْزِئُ جَذَعَةٌ لأَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ وَجُنْدَبٍ وَأَنَسٍ وَعُوَيْمِرِ بْنِ أَشْقَرَ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِي زَيْدٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ

خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي يَوْمِ نَحْرٍ فَقَالَ لَا يَذْبَحَنَّ أَحَدٌ حَتَّى نُصَلِّيَ فَقَامَ خَالِي فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَذَا يَوْمٌ اللَّحْمُ فِيهِ مَكْرُوهٌ وَإِنِّي عَجَّلْتُ وَإِنِّي ذَبَحْتُ نَسِيكَتِي لِأُطْعِمَ أَهْلِي وَأَهْلَ دَارِي أَوْ أَهْلِي وَجِيرَانِي فَقَالَ قَدْ فَعَلْتَ فَأَعِدْ ذَبْحًا آخَرَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عِنْدِي عَنَاقُ لَبَنٍ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ شَاتَيْ لَحْمٍ أَفَأَذْبَحُهَا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَهِيَ خَيْرُ نَسِيكَتَيكَ وَلَا تَقْضِي جَذَعَةٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No one should slaughter before they pray." My uncle came to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, today there is plenty of meat and I have slaughtered my sheep so that my family and neighbors can eat. I also have a neck of milk which is better than a sheep for meat. Should I slaughter it?" He said, "Yes, and you will not lose the reward of your sheep."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا يَذْبَحَنَّ أَحَدٌ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ خَالِي فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ فِيهِ اللَّحْمُ كَثِيرٌ وَإِنِّي ذَبَحْتُ نَسِيكَتِي لِيَأْكُلَ أَهْلِي وَجِيرَانِي وَإِنَّ عِنْدِي عَنَاقَ لَبَنٍ خَيْرٌ مِنْ شَاةِ لَحْمٍ فَأَذْبَحُهَا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَلَا تُجْزِي جَذَعَةٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ وَهِيَ خَيْرُ نَسِيكَتِكَ
