حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ح، وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ كَانَ يُضَحِّي بِكَبْشَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ وَيُسَمِّي وَيُكَبِّرُ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَذْبَحُ بِيَدِهِ وَاضِعًا قَدَمَهُ عَلَى صِفَاحِهِمَا ‏.‏

It wasnarrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said

“The Messenger ofAllah(ﷺ) sacrificed two rams on the Day of ‘Eid. When he turnedthemto face towards the prayer direction he said: ‘Verily, I haveturned my face towards Him Who has created the heavens and the earth,as a monotheist, and I am not of the polytheists. Verily, my prayer,my sacrifice, my living, and my dying are for Allah, the Lord of allthat exists. He has no partner. And of this I have been commanded,andI am the first of the Muslims. [6:79,162-163] O Allah, from YoutoYou, on behalf of Muhammad and his nation.’”
