tirmidhi:1506 – Aḥmad b. Manīʿ > Hushaym > Ḥajjāj b. Arṭāh > Jabalah b. Suḥaym > a man Saʾal Ibn ʿUmar > al-Uḍḥiyah Awājibah Hī

That a man asked Ibn 'Umar about the Udhiyah, "Is it obligatory?" So he said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the Udhiyah as did the Muslims." He repeated the question. So he said: "Do you understand ?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ slaughtered as did the Muslims."  

الترمذي:١٥٠٦ – حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ عَنْ جَبَلَةَ بْنِ سُحَيْمٍ أَنَّ رَجُلاً سَأَلَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ عَنِ الأُضْحِيَةِ أَوَاجِبَةٌ هِيَ فَقَالَ

ضَحَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ فَأَعَادَهَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ أَتَعْقِلُ ضَحَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ الأُضْحِيَةَ لَيْسَتْ بِوَاجِبَةٍ وَلَكِنَّهَا سُنَّةٌ مِنْ سُنَنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُسْتَحَبُّ أَنْ يُعْمَلَ بِهَا وَهُوَ قَوْلُ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ
