Sahih al-Bukhari 6673

Hadith text

Narrated Al-Bara bin Azib that once he had a guest, so he told his family (on the Day of Id-ul-Adha) that they should slaughter the animal for sacrifice before he returned from the ('Id) prayer in order that their guest could take his meal. So his family slaughtered (the animal ) before the prayer. Then they mentioned that event to the Prophet who ordered Al-Bara to slaughter another sacrifice. Al-Bara' said to the Prophet (ﷺ) , "I have a young milch she-goat which is better than two sheep for slaughtering." (The sub-narrator, Ibn 'Aun used to say, "I don't know whether the permission (to slaughter a she-goat as a sacrifice) was especially given to Al-Bara' or if it was in general for all the Muslims.") (See Hadith No. 99, Vol)

Al-Bara bin Azib bataate hain ke ek baar unke paas ek mehmaan aaya, isliye unhone apne khaandaan se (Eid-ul-Adha ke din) kaha ke wo namaz se wapas aane se pehle qurbaani ka jaanwar zibah kar dein taake unka mehmaan apna khaana kha sake. To unke khaandaan ne namaz se pehle (jaanwar) zibah kar diya. Phir unhone Nabi (SAW) ko ye baat bataayi, jinhone Al-Bara ko doosri qurbaani zibah karne ka hukm diya. Al-Bara ne Nabi (SAW) se kaha, 'Mere paas ek jawaan doodh-waali bakri hai jo do bakriyon se behtar hai zibah karne ke liye.' (Ravi Ibn Aun kehte the, 'Mujhe nahi pata ye ijaazat khaas taur par Al-Bara ke liye di gayi thi ya sab Musalmaanon ke liye.') (Poori tafseel ke liye Hadees No. 99, Jild dekhein.)
