اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي كِبَاشٍ قَالَ جَلَبْتُ غَنَمًا جُذْعَانًا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَكَسَدَتْ عَلَيَّ فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ نِعْمَ أَوْ نِعْمَتِ الْأُضْحِيَّةُ الْجَذَعُ مِنَ الضَّأْنِ قَالَ فَانْتَهَبَهَا النَّاسُ
Abu Kabash says: I brought a yearling sheep of the breed to Madinah, but my business went bad, so I met Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him. He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A yearling sheep of the breed is the best sacrifice." Then people rushed to me and started buying them.
