Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنِ اللَّيْثِ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَذْبَحُ أَوْ يَنْحَرُ بِالْمُصَلَّى .
Translation
Muhammad ibn ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abd al-Hakam narrated to us, from Shu‘ayb, from al-Layth, from Kathir ibn Farqad, from Nafi‘, that ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar informed him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would slaughter or perform nahr at the prayer ground.
Translation notes
The source preserves two alternative verbs: dhabḥ, slaughtering, and naḥr, the form of ritual slaughter commonly used for camels.
