1506. Jabalah bin Suhaïm narrated that a man asked Ibn 'Umar about the Udhiyah, "Is it obligatory?" So he said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ performed the Udhiyah as did the Muslims." He repeated the question. So he said: "Do you understand? The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ slaughtered as did the Muslims." (Da'if)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadith is Hasan Saḥīḥ. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge, that the Udhiyah is not obligatory, but it is a Sunnah among the Sunan of the Prophet ﷺ which it is recommended to perform. This is the view of Sufyān Ath-Thawrī and Ibn al-Mubārak.

Commentary
The Prophet ﷺ regularly offered the sacrifice throughout his life, and his Companions followed him. One who is poor and has nothing is exempt from offering a sacrifice.
