Arabic (Original)
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَخْتَوَيْهِ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْمُثَنَّى أَنَّ مُسَدَّدًا حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ أنبأ أَيُّوبُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ؓ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ مَنْ كَانَ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ فَلْيُعِدْ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَذَا يَوْمٌ يُشْتَهَى فِيهِ اللَّحْمُ وَذَكَرَ هَنَةً مِنْ جِيرَانِهِ كَأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَدَّقَهُ وَعِنْدِي جَذَعَةٌ أَحَبُّ إِلِيَّ مِنْ شَاتَيْ لَحْمٍ قَالَ فَرَخَّصَ لَهُ قَالَ فَلَا أَدْرِي أَبَلَغَتِ الرُّخْصَةُ مَنْ سِوَاهُ أَمْ لَا
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us, Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Sakhtawayh informed us, Abu al-Muthanna informed me that Musaddad narrated to them, he said: Isma'il narrated to us, Ayyub informed us from Muhammad ibn Sirin, from Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said on the Day of Sacrifice: "Whoever slaughtered before the prayer, let him repeat it." A man stood up and said: "O Messenger of Allah, this is a day when meat is craved, and he mentioned something about his neighbors - as if the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) believed him - and I have a young sheep that is more beloved to me than two mature sheep." He said: So he gave him permission. He said: I do not know whether the concession extended to others besides him or not.
