حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ نَحَرَ سَبْعَ بَدَنَاتٍ بِيَدِهِ قِيَامًا وَضَحَّى بِالْمَدِينَةِ بِكَبْشَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith narrates an event in which the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) sacrificed seven camels and two horned rams with his own hands. This act of sacrifice is known as qurbani in Arabic and it is a practice that Muslims perform during Eid al-Adha to commemorate the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son Ismail for Allah's sake. By performing this act, the Prophet Muhammad was demonstrating his obedience to Allah's commands and showing us how important it is for us to follow His orders without hesitation or doubt. Furthermore, this hadith also teaches us about generosity as sacrificing animals requires spending money on them which can be used for other purposes such as helping those in need or providing food for one's family. Finally, this hadith also serves as a reminder that we should always strive to do good deeds even if they require effort from our side because ultimately they will benefit us both in this world and the hereafter.
