Striking the sacrificial camel, haltering it and reining it

Tawus said: Do not ride a sacrificial camel that has not been fitted with a nose-rein.

Ata said: When there is fear that the camel will perish, it should be fitted with a halter and qatiran (a particular remedy made from the leaves of a tree) should be rubbed on it.

Al-Aswad used to put a nose-rein on his sacrificial camel, and Sayyiduna Ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) used to do the same.

Abu Ja'far said: Put a nose-rein on the sacrificial camel and strike it.

Alqamah, al-Aswad and Amr bin Maymun did not put nose-reins on their riding camels.
