Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ لِخَمْسٍ بَقِينَ مِنْ ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ لاَ نُرَى إِلاَّ الْحَجَّ حَتَّى إِذَا قَدِمْنَا وَدَنَوْنَا أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ مَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُ هَدْىٌ أَنْ يَحِلَّ فَحَلَّ النَّاسُ كُلُّهُمْ إِلاَّ مَنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ هَدْىٌ فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ النَّحْرِ دُخِلَ عَلَيْنَا بِلَحْمِ بَقَرٍ فَقِيلَ ذَبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَنْ أَزْوَاجِهِ ‏.‏

Translation

Abū Bakr ibn Abī Shaybah narrated to us: Yazīd ibn Hārūn narrated to us, from Yaḥyā ibn Saʿīd, from ʿAmrah, from ʿĀʾishah, who said: We set out with the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) with five nights remaining in Dhū al-Qaʿdah, intending nothing but Hajj. When we arrived and drew near, the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed those who had no sacrificial animal to leave the consecrated state, and everyone did so except those who had a sacrificial animal. On the Day of Sacrifice, beef was brought to us, and it was said that the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) had sacrificed it on behalf of his wives.
