3104 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، صَاحِبِ الدَّسْتُوَائِيِّ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِبَدَنَةٍ فَقَالَ: «ارْكَبْهَا» قَالَ: إِنَّهَا بَدَنَةٌ قَالَ: «ارْكَبْهَا» قَالَ: فَرَأَيْتُهُ رَاكِبَهَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فِي عُنُقِهَا نَعْلٌ

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)
