Abu Burda bin Niyar stood up and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! By Allah, I slaughtered my sacrifice before I offered the (Id) prayer and thought that today was the day of eating and drinking (non-alcoholic drinks) and so I made haste (in slaughtering) and ate and also fed my family and neighbors."

Abu Burda bin Niyar khade hue aur kaha: "Ya Allah ke Rasool! Allah ki qasam, maine (Eid ki) namaz padhne se pehle apni qurbani zabah kar li thi aur socha ke aaj khane-peene ka din hai (halal cheezon ka), isliye maine jaldi ki (zabah karke) aur khaya aur apne ghar walon aur padosiyon ko bhi khilaya." Allah ke Rasool ne farmaya: "Woh sirf gosht tha (qurbani nahi)." Phir Abu Burda ne kaha: "Mere paas ek jawan bakri hai, aur beshak woh do bhedon se behtar hai. Kya woh meri taraf se qurbani ke liye kaafi hogi?" Nabi ne jawab diya: "Haan. Magar tumhare baad kisi aur ke liye (qurbani ke tor par) kaafi nahi hogi."
