حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَعْطَاهُ غَنَمًا يَقْسِمُهَا عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ ضَحَايَا فَبَقِيَ عَتُودٌ أَوْ جَدْىٌ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ " ضَحِّ بِهِ أَنْتَ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ . قَالَ وَكِيعٌ الْجَذَعُ مِنَ الضَّأْنِ يَكُونُ ابْنَ سِتَّةِ أَوْ سَبْعَةِ أَشْهُرٍ .

Qutaybah narrated to us: Al-Layth narrated to us, from Yazid ibn Abi Habib, from Abu al-Khayr, from Uqbah ibn Amir, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave him sheep to distribute among his Companions as sacrificial animals. One young goat or kid remained, so I mentioned it to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and he said: “You sacrifice it.” Abu Isa said: This hadith is hasan sahih. Waki said: A jadha among sheep is one that is six or seven months old.
