Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent 18 sacrificial camels with a man. He mentioned the like of the hadith of Abd al-Warith, but did not mention the story, and he used the word «uzhifa» (it became exhausted) in place of «ubdi'a» (it gave out).
