English translation

4400. It was narrated that Al-Barâ' bin 'Âzib said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ addressed us on the Day of Sacrifice and said: 'Whoever prays as we pray and offers the sacrifice as we do, has done the rituals properly. Whoever offered the sacrifice before the prayer, that is just a sheep for meat.'" Abû Burdah said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, by Allâh, I offered my sacrifice before I went out to pray. I knew that this day is a day of eating and drinking, so I hastened to eat and to feed my family and my neighbors.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'That was just a sheep for meat.' He said: 'I have a Jadh'ah she-goat that is better than two sheep for meat; will it suffice for me (as a sacrifice)?" He said: "Yes, but it will never suffice for anyone after you." (Sahih)

4395 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «مَنْ صَلَّى صَلَاتَنَا، وَنَسَكَ نُسُكَنَا، فَقَدْ أَصَابَ النُّسُكَ، وَمَنْ نَسَكَ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ، فَتِلْكَ شَاةُ لَحْمٍ»، فَقَالَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ نَسَكْتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ، وَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّ الْيَوْمَ يَوْمُ أَكْلٍ وَشُرْبٍ، فَتَعَجَّلْتُ فَأَكَلْتُ، وَأَطْعَمْتُ أَهْلِي وَجِيرَانِي، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تِلْكَ شَاةُ لَحْمٍ»، قَالَ: فَإِنَّ عِنْدِي عَنَاقًا جَذَعَةً خَيْرٌ مِنْ شَاتَيْ لَحْمٍ، فَهَلْ تُجْزِئُ عَنِّي؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، وَلَنْ تَجْزِيَ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ»
