Sunan Ibn Majah 3144 (Book 26, Hadith 25) #32498
Forbidden Sacrificial Animals

SUMMARY: Allah's Messenger ﷺ forbade four types of animals to be used as sacrifices and discouraged the use of animals with faults in their ears.

Sulaiman bin 'Abdur-Rahman said: "I heard 'Ubaid bin Fairuz say: 'I said to Bara’ bin 'Azib: "Tell us of the sacrificial animals that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ disliked or forbade". He said: "Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said like this with his hand. And my hand is shorter than his hand:* 'There are four that will not be accepted as sacrifices: The one-eyed animal that is obviously blind in one eye; the sick animal that is obviously sick; the lame animal with an obvious limp; and the animal that is so emaciated that it is as if there is no marrow in its bones.’" He said:** "And I dislike that the animal should have some fault in its ears". He said: "What you dislike, forget about it and do not make it forbidden to anyone".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ وَابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ وَأَبُو الْوَلِيدِ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، سَمِعْتُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ فَيْرُوزَ، قَالَ قُلْتُ لِلْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ حَدِّثْنِي بِمَا، كَرِهَ أَوْ نَهَى عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ﷺ ـ مِنَ الأَضَاحِيِّ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ﷺ ـ هَكَذَا بِيَدِهِ وَيَدِي أَقْصَرُ مِنْ يَدِهِ ‏ "‏ أَرْبَعٌ لاَ تُجْزِئُ فِي الأَضَاحِيِّ الْعَوْرَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ عَوَرُهَا وَالْمَرِيضَةُ الْبَيِّنُ مَرَضُهَا وَالْعَرْجَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ ظَلْعُهَا وَالْكَسِيرَةُ الَّتِي لاَ تُنْقِي ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَإِنِّي أَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ نَقْصٌ فِي الأُذُنِ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَمَا كَرِهْتَ مِنْهُ فَدَعْهُ وَلاَ تُحَرِّمْهُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith is about the sacrificial animals that are not accepted by Allah's Messenger. He forbade four types of animals to be used as sacrifices; one-eyed animal that is obviously blind in one eye; the sick animal that is obviously sick; the lame animal with an obvious limp; and the animal that is so emaciated that it is as if there is no marrow in its bones. He also discouraged using animals with faults in their ears. This hadith teaches us to be mindful when sacrificing an animal for Allah's sake and make sure it meets all requirements set by Him. We should not sacrifice any animal which has any kind of physical defect or illness because it will not be accepted by Allah. We should also take care of our own health and well being so we can perform our religious duties properly without any hindrance or difficulty.
