The Prophet (ﷺ) said (on the day of Idal-Adha), "The first thing we will do on
this day of ours, is to offer the ('Id) prayer and then return to slaughter the
sacrifice. Whoever does so, he acted according to our Sunna (tradition), and
whoever slaughtered (the sacrifice) before the prayer, what he offered was just
meat he presented to his family, and that will not be considered as Nusak
(sacrifice)." (On hearing that) Abu Burda bin Niyar got up, for he had
slaughtered the sacrifice before the prayer, and said, "I have got a six month
old ram." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Slaughter it (as a sacrifice) but it will not
be sufficient for any-one else (as a sacrifice after you). Al-Bara' added: The
Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever slaughtered (the sacrifice) after the prayer, he
slaughtered it at the right time and followed the tradition of the Muslims."

(to be slaughtered on 'Id-al-Adha). 'Uqba's share was a Jadha'a (a six month old
goat). 'Uqba said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I get in my share of Jadha'a (a six
month old ram)." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Slaughter it as a sacrifice."

Have you got your period?" She said, "Yes." He said, "This is a matter Allah has
decreed for all the daughters of Adam, so perform all the ceremonies of Hajj
like the others, but do not perform the Tawaf around the Ka'ba." 'Aisha added:
When we were at Mina, beef was brought to me and I asked, "What is this?" They

The Prophet (ﷺ) said on the day of Nahr, "Whoever has slaughtered his sacrifice
before the prayer, should repeat it (slaughter another sacrifice)." A man got up
and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! This is a day on which meat is desired." He
then mentioned his neighbors saying, "I have a six month old ram which is to me
better than the meat of two sheep." The Prophet (ﷺ) allowed him to slaughter it
as a sacrifice, but I do not know whether this permission was valid for other
than that man or not. The Prophet (ﷺ) then went towards two rams and slaughtered
them, and then the people went towards some sheep and distributed them among
themselves.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Time has come back to its original state which it had on
the day Allah created the Heavens and the Earth. The year is twelve months, four
of which are sacred, three of them are in succession, namely Dhul-Qa'da, Dhul
Hijja and Muharram, (the fourth being) Rajab Mudar which is between Juma'da
(ath-thamj and Sha'ban. The Prophet (ﷺ) then asked, "Which month is this?" We
said, "Allah and his Apostle know better." He kept silent so long that we
thought that he would call it by a name other than its real name. He said,
"Isn't it the month of Dhul-Hijja?" We said, "Yes." He said, "Which town is
this?" We said, "Allah and His Apostle know better." He kept silent so long that
we thought that he would call it t,y a name other than its real name. He said,
"isn't it the town (of Mecca)?" We replied, "Yes." He said, "What day is today?"
We replied, "Allah and His Apostle know better." He kept silent so long that we
thought that he would call it by a name other than its real name. He said,
"Isn't it the day of Nahr?" We replied, "Yes." He then said, "Your blood,
properties and honor are as sacred to one another as this day of yours in this
town of yours in this month of yours. You will meet your Lord, and He will ask
you about your deeds. Beware! Do not go astray after me by cutting the necks of
each other. It is incumbent upon those who are present to convey this message to
those who are absent, for some of those to whom it is conveyed may comprehend it
better than some of those who have heard it directly." (Muhammad, the
sub-narrator, on mentioning this used to say: The Prophet then said, "No doubt!
Haven't I delivered (Allah's) Message (to you)? Haven't I delivered Allah's
message (to you)?"
