عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: ذَبَحَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الذَّبْحِ كَبْشَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ موجئين فَلَمَّا وجههما قَالَ: «إِنِّي وجهت وَجْهي للَّذي فطر السَّمَوَات وَالْأَرْضَ عَلَى مِلَّةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَبِذَلِكَ أَمَرْتُ وَأَنَا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ اللَّهُمَّ مِنْكَ وَلَكَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأُمَّتِهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ثُمَّ ذَبَحَ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ وَابْنُ مَاجَهْ وَالدَّارِمِيُّ وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ لِأَحْمَدَ وَأَبِي دَاوُدَ وَالتِّرْمِذِيِّ: ذَبَحَ بِيَدِهِ وَقَالَ: «بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُمَّ هَذَا عَنِّي وَعَمَّنْ لَمْ يُضَحِّ من أمتِي»

Jabir said: On the day of sacrifice, the Prophet sacrificed two horned, light-colored, castrated rams. As he turned them toward the qibla, he said: “I have turned my face toward the One who created the heavens and the earth, following Abraham’s upright faith, and I am not one of the polytheists. My prayer, my sacrifice, my life, and my death belong to God, Lord of the worlds; He has no partner. This is what I was commanded, and I am one of the Muslims. O God, it is from You and for You, on behalf of Muhammad and his community. In the name of God; God is greatest.” Then he slaughtered them.
Ahmad, Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah, and al-Darimi transmitted it. In a version transmitted by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, and al-Tirmidhi, he slaughtered with his own hand and said: “In the name of God; God is greatest. O God, this is on my behalf and on behalf of those of my community who have not offered a sacrifice.”
