Sacrifice due to islam


 - Jundab bin Sufyan, may Allah be pleased with him, reported: I was with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) on the day of 'Id Al-Adha While he had not returned after having offered (the 'Id Prayer) and finished it, he saw the flesh of the sacrificial animals which had been slaughtered before he had completed the Prayer. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: One who slaughtered his sacrificial animal before his Prayer or our Prayer ('Id), he should slaughter another one in its stead, and he who did not slaughter, he should slaughter by reciting the name of Allah.

 - Al-Bara', may Allah be pleased with him, reported: My maternal uncle Abu Burdah sacrificed his animal before ('Id) Prayer. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: That is a goat (slaughtered for the sake of) flesh (and not as a sacrifice on the Day of Al-Adha). He said: I have a lamb of six months. Thereupon he said: Offer it as a sacrifice, but it will not justify for anyone except you, and then said: He who sacrificed (the animal) before ('Id) Prayer, he in fact slaughtered it for his own self, and he who slaughtered after the Prayer, his ritual of sacrifice became complete and he in fact observed the religious practice of the Muslims.

 - Anas (bin Malik), may Allah be pleased with him, reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said on the Day of Nahr (Sacrifice): He who slaughtered (the animal as a sacrifice) before the ('Id) Prayer, should repeat it (i.e. offer another animal). Thereupon a person stood up and said: Messenger of Allah, that is the day when meat is much desired, and he also made a mention of the need of his neighbor, and perhaps Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) attested it. He (the person who had sacrificed the animal before the 'Id Prayer) said: I have a goat of less than one year of age with me and I like it more than two fleshy goats; should I offer it as a sacrifice? He permitted him to do so. I do not know whether this permission was granted to anyone else besides him or not. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) then turned towards two rams, and he slaughtered them, and the people came to the goats and got them distributed among themselves (for offering them as sacrifice).

 - 'Uqbah bin 'Amir, may Allah be pleased with him, reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) gave him ('Uqbah) the gifts of goats to be distributed among his Companions. They sacrificed them, but a lamb of one year of age was left. He ('Uqbah) made a mention of that to Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him), whereupon he said: You sacrifice it. Qutaibah narrated it with a slight difference of wording.

 - Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) sacrificed with his own hands two horned rams which were white with black markings reciting the name of Allah and glorifying Him (saying Allah-u-Akbar). He placed his foot on their sides (while sacrificing).

 - Rafi' bin Khadij, may Allah be pleased with him, is reported to have said: I said: Allah's Messenger, we are going to encounter the enemy tomorrow, but we have no knives with us. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Make haste or be careful (in making arrangements for procuring knives) which would let the blood flow (and along with it) the name of Allah is also to be recited. Then eat, but not the tooth or nail. And I am going to tell you why it is not permissible to slaughter the animal with the help of tooth and bone; and as for the nail, it is a bone, and the bone is the knife of Abyssinians. He (the narrator) said: There fell to our lot as spoils of war camels and goats, and one of the camels among them became wild. A person (among us) struck it with an arrow which brought it under control, whereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: This camel became wild like wild animals, so if you find any animal getting wild, you do the same with that.

 - 'Ali bin Abi Talib's Hadith, may Allah be pleased with him. Abu 'Ubaid reported: I was with 'Ali bin Abi Talib on the occasion of the 'Id Day. He started with the 'Id Prayer before delivering the sermon, and said: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) forbade us to eat the flesh of our sacrificial animals beyond three days.

 - Ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them, reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: None of you should eat the flesh of his sacrificial animal beyond three days.

 - 'A'ishah's Hadith, may Allah be pleased with her: 'Abdullah bin Waqid reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) forbade (people) to eat the flesh of sacrificed animals beyond three days. 'Abdullah bin Abi Bakr said: I made a mention of that to 'Amrah, whereupon she said: He has told the truth, for I have heard 'A'ishah say: The poor among the people of the desert come (to the towns) on the occasion of 'Id Al-Adha during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him). Whereupon the Messenger of Allah said: Retain with you (the flesh) sufficing for three (days), and whatever is left out of that give in charity. After this, they (the Muslims) said: Allah's Messenger, the people make waterskins with the (hides) of their sacrificial animals beyond three (days), whereupon he said: I forbade you for those (poor persons) who flocked (to the towns on this occasion for greeting meat) but now when this occasion has improved you may eat, preserve and give in charity.

 - Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) forbade eating of the flesh of sacrificed animals beyond three (days), but afterwards said: Eat, make a provision, and keep it.

 - Salamah bin Al-Akwa', may Allah be pleased with him, reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: He who sacrifices (animal) among you, nothing should be left in his house (out of its flesh) on the morning of the third day. When it was the next year, they (his Companions) said: Should we do this year as we did during the previous year? Thereupon he said: Do not do that, for that was a year when the people were hard pressed (on account of poverty), so I wanted that the (flesh) might be distributed among them.

 - Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: (The sacrifice of Al-Fara' and Al-'Atirah) has no (sanction in Islam). Ibn Rafi' made this addition in his narration that Al-Fara' means the first-born young one of a camel
