English

Volume 2, Book 15, Number 74:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, "Whoever slaughtered (his sacrifice) before the 'Id prayer, should slaughter
again." A man stood up and said, "This is the day on which one has desire for meat," and he men –
tioned something about his neighbors. It seemed that the Prophet I believed him. Then the same man
added, "I have a young she-goat which is dearer to me than the meat of two sheep." The Prophet per –
mitted him to slaughter it as a sacrifice. I do not know whether that permission was valid only for
him or for others as well.
