2795. It was reported from Jābir bin 'Abdullāh who said: "On the Day of Slaughter, the Prophet ﷺ slaughtered two horned, castrated, white rams, with black markings. When he made them face the Qiblah, he said: 'I have turned my face towards He Who created the heavens and the earth, upon the Millat (religion) of Ibrāhīm, Hanīfan (staying away from Shirk), and I am not from the idolaters. Indeed, my Salāt, my sacrifice, my life and my death all are for Allāh, the Lord of the Universe, Who has no partner. That is what I have been commanded, and I am one of the Muslims.[1] O Allāh it is from You, and is for You, on behalf of Muḥammad and his Ummah. In the Name of Allāh, the Most Great.' He then slaughtered it." (Hasan)

2795 - حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى الرَّازِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: ذَبَحَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الذَّبْحِ كَبْشَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ مُوجَأَيْنِ، فَلَمَّا وَجَّهَهُمَا قَالَ: «إِنِّي وَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِيَ لِلَّذِي فَطَرَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ عَلَى مِلَّةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا، وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، وَبِذَلِكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنَا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، اللَّهُمَّ مِنْكَ وَلَكَ، وَعَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأُمَّتِهِ بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ، وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ» ثُمَّ ذَبَحَ
