Offer sacrifice according to Islamic teachings without competing with others .

This hadith speaks about how sacrifices were offered among the people at the time of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. It is narrated that 'Ata bin Yasar asked Abu Ayyub Al- Ansari about how they used to offer sacrifices during that time. He said that a man would sacrifice a sheep on behalf of himself and his family members, and they would eat some of it while giving some away to others. However, as times changed, people started competing with each other in offering sacrifices which is what we see nowadays. This hadith teaches us not to be competitive when offering sacrifices or any other good deeds as this defeats its purpose which is to please Allah SWT by doing something for His sake only without expecting anything in return or showing off our good deeds.
