حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، وَأَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَابِطٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ وَأَصْحَابَهُ كَانُوا يَنْحَرُونَ الْبَدَنَةَ مَعْقُولَةَ الْيُسْرَى قَائِمَةً عَلَى مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ قَوَائِمِهَا

EXPLANATIONS:
According to this hadith narrated by 'Abd al Rahman bin Thabit, the Prophet Muhammad and his companions used to sacrifice camels with one of its legs tied. This was done so that the camel would remain standing on the rest of its legs while being sacrificed. This act is a sign of respect for animals as it ensures that they are not harmed or injured during the process. It also serves as a reminder for us to be kind and compassionate towards all living creatures. Furthermore, it teaches us about patience and perseverance in difficult times as we can learn from how the camel stands still despite having one leg tied up.
