English translation

2981. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "We went out with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ when there were five nights left of Dhul-Qa'dah, intending only to perform Hajj. When we came close, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ordered that whoever did not have a sacrificial animal, then he should exit Ihrām. So all the people exited Ihrām, except those who had the sacrificial animal. When the Day of sacrifice (i.e., the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah) came, some beef was brought to us, and it was said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ has offered a sacrifice on behalf of his wives.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

2981 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِخَمْسٍ بَقِينَ مِنْ ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ، لَا نُرَى إِلَّا الْحَجَّ، حَتَّى إِذَا قَدِمْنَا وَدَنَوْنَا «أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُ هَدْيٌ أَنْ يَحِلَّ» فَحَلَّ النَّاسُ كُلُّهُمْ، إِلَّا مَنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ هَدْيٌ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ النَّحْرِ، «دُخِلَ عَلَيْنَا بِلَحْمِ بَقَرٍ، فَقِيلَ ذَبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَزْوَاجِهِ»

Commentary

It is made clear in the Hadith no. 3135 that a cow was sacrificed jointly for the Mothers of Believers. A cow or a camel may be sacrificed for one family even if the family members are more than seven persons.
