[Machine] I bought a sheep for sacrifice and as I was leaving, a wolf took its leg. So, I asked the Prophet ﷺ and he said, sacrifice it. In another narration by Sufyan, we bought a ram for sacrifice and the wolf cut its leg or part of it, so I asked the Prophet ﷺ and he commanded me to sacrifice it, and this is the meaning.
