“I went out with Abu Sa’eed Az- Zuraqi, the Companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, to buy animals or sacrifice.” Yunus said: “Abu Sa’eed pointed to a ram that had some blackness around its ears and jaw, and was neither too big nor too small, and said to me: ‘Buy this one for them, as it seems to resemble the ram of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.’”
خَرَجْنَا مَعَ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الزُّرَقِيِّ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى شِرَاءِ الضَّحَايَا قَالَ يُونُسُ فَأَشَارَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ إِلَى كَبْشٍ أَدْغَمَ لَيْسَ بِالْمُرْتَفِعِ وَلاَ الْمُتَّضِعِ فِي جِسْمِهِ فَقَالَ لِي اشْتَرِ لِي هَذَا كَأَنَّهُ شَبَّهَهُ بِكَبْشِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
