Bayhaqi 6263 — The imam teaches them in the sermon of Eid al-Adha how

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ زُبَيْدٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ: خَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ أَضْحَى إِلَى الْبَقِيعِ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ، فَقَالَ: " إِنَّ أَوَّلَ نُسُكِنَا فِي يَوْمِنَا هَذَا أَنْ نَبْدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ، ثُمَّ نَرْجِعَ فَنَنْحَرَ فَمَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ وَافَقَ سُنَّتَنَا، وَمَنْ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ لَحْمٌ عَجَّلَهُ لِأَهْلِهِ لَيْسَ مِنَ النُّسُكِ فِي شَيْءٍ "، فَقَامَ خَالِي فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَا ذَبَحْتُ وَعِنْدِي جَذَعَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ مُسِنَّةٍ، قَالَ: " اذْبَحْهَا ثُمَّ لَا تُوَفِّي جَذَعَةٌ بَعْدَكَ ". قَالَ زُبَيْدٌ: فَسَمِعْتُ بَعْضَ أَصْحَابِنَا أَنَّهُ قَالَ: عَنَاقُ جَذَعَةٍ. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ زُبَيْدٍ.
Sayyiduna al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) says: On the day of Eid al-Adha the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came towards al-Baqi'. He (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed two rak'ahs there, then turned towards us and said: "Our first act on this day of ours is to begin with the prayer, then to offer our sacrifice. Whoever does that has attained our Sunnah, and whoever slaughters before that, it is only meat which he has hastened for his family; it is not a sacrifice." My maternal uncle stood up and said: "O Messenger of Allah! I have already slaughtered, and I have a jadha'ah which is better than a musinnah?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Slaughter it, but after you a jadha'ah will not suffice for anyone."
Zubayd (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I heard some of our companions say: "A jadha'ah of a goat."
