It was narrated from ‘Aishah and Abu Hurairah that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanted to offer a sacrifice, he brought two large, fat, horned, black-and-white, castrated rams. He slaughtered one on behalf of his nation, for whoever testified to Allah with monotheism and that he had conveyed (the Message), and he slaughtered the other on behalf of Muhammad and the family of Muhammad ﷺ.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُضَحِّيَ اشْتَرَى كَبْشَيْنِ عَظِيمَيْنِ سَمِينَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ مَوْجُوءَيْنِ فَذَبَحَ أَحَدَهُمَا عَنْ أُمَّتِهِ لِمَنْ شَهِدَ لِلَّهِ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ وَشَهِدَ لَهُ بِالْبَلاَغِ وَذَبَحَ الآخَرَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ sacrificed two large, fat, salted, paired, and bleating rams. He slaughtered one of them and said, "O Allah, this is on behalf of Muhammad and his ummah, from those who bear witness to Your Oneness, and bear witness to my Messengerhood." Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in his summary.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to buy two healthy rams when he intended to sacrifice. Then, when he prayed and delivered the sermon, he would call one of them while it was in the place of prayer, and slaughter it. Afterwards, he would say, "O Allah, this is on behalf of my entire Ummah, whoever testifies to Your Oneness and testifies in support of my message." Then he would go to the other ram and slaughter it, and say, "O Allah, this is on behalf of Muhammad and his family."
