Commentary
Riding on the sacrificial animal is allowed only when one does not have any other animal and he is tired. Jābir ؓ reported from the Prophet ﷺ that he said: “I heard Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ as saying: ‘Ride on it gently, when you have need for it, until you find (another) mount.’” (Sahih Muslim)
