حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا الثَّوْرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَوْ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُضَحِّيَ اشْتَرَى كَبْشَيْنِ عَظِيمَيْنِ سَمِينَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ مَوْجُوأَيْنِ فَيَذْبَحُ أَحَدَهُمَا عَنْ أُمَّتِهِ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ وَشَهِدَ لَهُ بِالْبَلَاغِ وَذَبَحَ الْآخَرَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
English Translation
It was narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) or Abu Hurayra that when the Prophet ﷺ wanted to slaughter his sacrificial animals, he would buy two large, fat, black-and-white, horned, castrated rams. He would slaughter one on behalf of his ummah — those who affirmed the oneness of Allah and bore witness that he had conveyed the message — and the other on behalf of Muhammad and the family of Muhammad.
