Bayhaqi 19094 — Animals it is prohibited to sacrifice

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ بِبَغْدَادَ، أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ دَرَسْتَوَيْهِ، ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ فَيْرُوزَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ مَاذَا يُتَّقَى مِنَ الضَّحَايَا؟ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ فَقَالَ أَرْبَعًا. وَكَانَ الْبَرَاءُ يُشِيرُ بِيَدِهِ وَيَقُولُ: وَيَدِي أَقْصَرُ مِنْ يَدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " الْعَرْجَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ ظَلَعُهَا، وَالْعَوْرَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ عَوَرُهَا، وَالْمَرِيضَةُ الْبَيِّنُ مَرَضُهَا، وَالْعَجْفَاءُ الَّتِي لَا تَنْقَى..
Sayyiduna al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked which animals should be avoided in sacrifice. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said, gesturing with his hand: "The sacrifice of four kinds of animals should be avoided." Al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him), gesturing with his hand, said: My hand is shorter than the hand of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "A lame animal whose lameness is evident, a one-eyed animal whose loss of an eye is evident, a sick animal whose sickness is clear, and an old animal that has no marrow in its bones."
