Arabic text

3151 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، «أَنَّ رَجُلًا ذَبَحَ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ، يَعْنِي قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ،» فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُعِيدَ "

Commentary

a. The prayer here means the prayer of 'Eid. Bara' reported: "The Prophet ﷺ went to the prayer place (outside the city) on the day of 'Eidul-Adha and offered a two Rak'ah prayer, and then faced us and said, 'On this day of ours, our first act of worship is the offering of prayer and then we will return and slaughter the sacrifice....'" (Sahih Al-Bukhārī) b. If anyone sacrifices before the prayer of 'Eid mistakenly, and he can afford another animal, he has to sacrifice it after the 'Eid prayer.
