Abu Burda slaughtered (the sacrifice) before the (ʿId) prayer whereupon the Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Slaughter another sacrifice instead of that." Abu Burda said, "I have nothing except a Jadha'a." (Shuʿba said: Perhaps Abu Burda also said that Jadha'a was better than an old sheep in his opinion.) The Prophet ﷺ said, "(Never mind), slaughter it to make up for the other one, but it will not be sufficient for anyone else after you."  

البخاري:٥٥٥٧حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ ذَبَحَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ قَبْلَ الصَّلاَةِ فَقَالَ

لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَبْدِلْهَا قَالَ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي إِلاَّ جَذَعَةٌ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ مُسِنَّةٍ قَالَ اجْعَلْهَا مَكَانَهَا وَلَنْ تَجْزِيَ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ وَقَالَ حَاتِمُ بْنُ وَرْدَانَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَالَ عَنَاقٌ جَذَعَةٌ

Offer a substitute for it (since it does not absolve you of the responsibility of sacrifice). Thereupon he said: Messenger of Allah. I have nothing with me but a goat of less than six months. Shu'ba (one of the narrators) said: I think he (al-Bara' b. 'Azib also) said: And it is better than a goat of one year. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Make it a substitute for that (and sacrifice it), but it will not suffice for anyone (as a sacrifice) after you.
