حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، عَنِ الْمُطَّلِبِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ شَهِدْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم الأَضْحَى بِالْمُصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى خُطْبَتَهُ نَزَلَ عَنْ مِنْبَرِهِ فَأُتِيَ بِكَبْشٍ فَذَبَحَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِيَدِهِ وَقَالَ " بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ هَذَا عَنِّي وَعَمَّنْ لَمْ يُضَحِّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ . وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَغَيْرِهِمْ أَنْ يَقُولَ الرَّجُلُ إِذَا ذَبَحَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ . وَالْمُطَّلِبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حَنْطَبٍ يُقَالُ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ جَابِرٍ .

Qutaybah narrated to us: Yaqoub ibn Abd al-Rahman narrated to us, from Amr ibn Abi Amr, from al-Muttalib, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, who said: I attended the Eid al-Adha prayer with the Prophet (ﷺ) at the prayer ground. When he had finished his sermon, he came down from his pulpit and a ram was brought to him. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) slaughtered it with his own hand and said: “In the name of Allah; Allah is the greatest. This is on my behalf and on behalf of those in my community who have not offered a sacrifice.” Abu Isa said: This hadith is gharīb through this route. The people of knowledge, including the Companions and others, act on this by saying “In the name of Allah; Allah is the greatest” when slaughtering. This was the view of Ibn al-Mubarak. Al-Muttalib ibn Abdullah ibn Hantab is said not to have heard from Jabir.
