Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ لَقِيطِ بْنِ صَبِرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَبَحَ لَنَا شَاةً وَقَالَ لَا تَحْسَبَنَّ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَا يَحْسَبَنَّ إِنَّا إِنَّمَا ذَبَحْنَاهَا لَكَ وَلَكِنْ لَنَا غَنَمٌ فَإِذَا بَلَغَتْ مِائَةً ذَبَحْنَا شَاةً.
English Translation
Waki' told us: Sufyan told us, from Abu Hashim, Isma'il ibn Kathir, from Asim ibn Laqit ibn Sabira, from his father, who said: I came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and he slaughtered a sheep for us, and said: "Do not think" - and he did not say "let him not think" - "that we slaughtered it only for you; rather, we have sheep, and when they reach a hundred, we slaughter a sheep."
