Hadith 1757
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَفْلَحُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " فَتَلْتُ قَلَائِدَ بُدْنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِي ثُمَّ أَشْعَرَهَا وَقَلَّدَهَا ثُمَّ بَعَثَ بِهَا إِلَى الْبَيْتِ وَأَقَامَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَمَا حَرُمَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ كَانَ لَهُ حِلًّا " .
Aishah said: I twisted the garlands of the sacrificial animals of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with my own hands, after which he made incision in their humps and garlanded them, and sent them as offerings to the house (Kabah), but he himself stayed back at Madinah and nothing which had been lawful for him had been forbidden.

Brief Explanation
1؎: The purpose of hanging a collar or rope, etc., around the neck of the sacrificial animal was so that people would recognize these animals as being dedicated to the House of Allah and would not interfere with them.
2؎: From this hadith, it is understood that it is permissible for a resident (muqim) to send a sacrificial animal (hady), and merely sending the hady does not make him enter the state of ihram, nor does anything become prohibited for him that is prohibited for a person in ihram, unless he himself intends ihram, dons the ihram garments, and proceeds for Hajj. Some people are of the opinion that he too becomes like a person in ihram and must abstain from all those things until the hady is sacrificed, but the correct view is that of the majority (jumhur), as is established from this hadith.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
1757. Commentary: If a person sends a sacrificial animal (hadi) towards the Haram but does not go himself, he remains in a state of being lawful (halal). None of the rulings of ihram apply to him.
