Sunan an-Nasai 4368 (Book 43, Hadith 8) #18901
Offering Sacrifice in the Name of Allah

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) instructed people to offer a sacrifice in the name of Allah if they had not done so before the prayer.

It was narrated that Jundub bin Sufyan said: "I attended (the day of) sacrifice with the Messenger of Allah He led the people in prayer, then when he finished praying he saw some sheep that had been sacrificed. He said 'Whoever slaughtered (his sacrifice) before the prayer. Let him slaughtered (his sacrifice) before the prayer, let him slaughter a sheep in its place, and whoever has not slaughtered, let him offer a sacrifice in the name of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime"'.
أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَحْوَصِ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ جُنْدُبِ بْنِ سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ شَهِدْتُ أَضْحَى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلاَةَ رَأَى غَنَمًا قَدْ ذُبِحَتْ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ الصَّلاَةِ فَلْيَذْبَحْ شَاةً مَكَانَهَا وَمَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ ذَبَحَ فَلْيَذْبَحْ عَلَى اسْمِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about offering a sacrifice in the name of Allah. It was narrated by Jundub bin Sufyan that he attended a day of sacrifice with Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). After leading people in prayer, he saw some sheep that had been sacrificed and instructed those who hadn't yet slaughtered their sacrifices to do so and offer it in the name of Allah, The Mighty and Sublime. This teaches us that we should always remember to thank God for all His blessings by offering sacrifices as an act of gratitude. We should also remember to be mindful when performing our religious duties such as praying or sacrificing animals, as these are important acts which can bring us closer to God.
