2791. It was reported from 'Amr bin Muslim Al-Laithī: "I heard Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab saying: 'I heard Umm Salamah saying: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'If anyone has an animal for slaughter (as sacrifice), then when the crescent of Dhūl-Hijjah is sighted, then he is not to take (cut) from his hair nor his nails until he has sacrificed.'" (Saḥīḥ) Abū Dāwūd said: Those who reported it from Mālik and Muḥammad bin 'Amr differed over (the name of) 'Amr bin Muslim. Some of them said: 'Umar, and most of them said 'Amr. Abū Dāwūd said: He is 'Amr bin Muslim bin Ukaimah Al-Laithī Al-Jundaī.

2791 - حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيِّبِ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، تَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ ذِبْحٌ يَذْبَحُهُ فَإِذَا أَهَلَّ هِلَالُ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ فَلَا يَأْخُذَنَّ مِنْ شَعْرِهِ وَلَا مِنْ أَظْفَارِهِ شَيْئًا حَتَّى يُضَحِّيَ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «اخْتَلَفُوا عَلَى مَالِكٍ، وَعَلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، فِي عَمْرِو بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ عُمَرُ، وَأَكْثَرُهُمْ قَالَ عَمْرٌو» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «وَهُوَ عَمْرُو بْنُ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ أُكَيْمَةَ اللَّيْثِيُّ الْجُنْدُعِيُّ»

Commentary

Anyone who intends to offer a sacrifice, he must refrain from trimming his hair and clipping his nails during the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, until after they have performed the sacrifice.
