Sunan Ibn Majah 3138 (Book 26, Hadith 19) #32492
Sacrifice of an 'Atud

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) gave Uqbah bin 'Amir Al-Juhani some sheep to be sacrificed, and when there was one left, the Prophet told him to sacrifice it himself.

It was narrated from 'Uqbah bin 'Amir Al-Juhani that the Messenger of Allah gave him some sheep, and he distributed them among his Companions to be sacrificed. There remained an 'Atud.* He mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah and he said: "You sacrifice it yourself".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ أَعْطَاهُ غَنَمًا فَقَسَمَهَا عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ ضَحَايَا فَبَقِيَ عَتُودٌ فَذَكَرَهُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ ـ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ ضَحِّ بِهِ أَنْتَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of sacrifice in Islam. It was narrated from Uqbah bin ‘Amir Al-Juhani that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) gave him some sheep to be sacrificed and distributed them among his companions. However, there remained one ‘Atud which he mentioned to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The Prophet then instructed him to sacrifice it himself. This hadith teaches us that sacrificing animals is a part of Islamic tradition and should not be taken lightly or ignored. It also shows us how important it is for Muslims to follow the teachings and instructions given by our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH). We should always strive to do what he has asked us so that we can gain rewards in this life as well as in the hereafter.
