[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said about a boy, two rewards, and about a girl, one reward. Abu Muhammad Al-Sakkari informed us from Ismail bin Muhammad Al-Saffar, who narrated from Ahmad bin Mansur, who narrated from Abdul Razzaq, who narrated from Ibn Juraij, who told me that Ata said about this Hadith, "It means for Ata, what are the two rewards?" He said, "They are the two mithlans (a type of sheep), and he prefers sheep over goats, and their males are dearer to him than females." Then he asked, "If a person slaughtered her in place, what do you think?" Ata said, "Start with the one that is named, then slaughter the rest as you wish." I said to him, "What about the Sunnah?" He said, "And the Sunnah."
النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ عَنِ الْغُلَامِ شَاتَانِ مُكَافَأَتَانِ وَعَنِ الْجَارِيَةِ شَاةٌ 19279 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ السُّكَّرِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أنبأ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَطَاءٌ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قُلْتُ يَعْنِي لِعَطَاءٍ وَمَا الْمُكَافَأَتَانِ؟ قَالَ الْمِثْلَانِ وَالضَّأْنُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْمَعْزِ وَذُكْرَانُهَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ إِنَاثِهَا رَأْيٌ مِنْهُ قَالَ إِنْسَانٌ لِعَطَاءٍ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ ذَبَحْتُ مَكَانَهَا جَزُورًا؟ قَالَ ابْدَأْ بِالَّذِي سَمَّى ثُمَّ اذْبَحْ بَعْدُ مَا شِئْتَ قُلْتُ لَهُ وَالسُّنَّةُ؟ قَالَ وَالسُّنَّةُ
