Sahih al-Bukhari 6160 (Book 78, Hadith 186) #5915
Riding on Sacrificial Camels

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ encouraged a man to ride on a camel for sacrifice, despite the man's reluctance.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger saw a man driving a Badana (a camel for sacrifice) and said to him, "Ride on it". The man said, "O Allah's Messenger ! It is a Badana". The Prophet said, "Ride on it, woe to you!" on the second or third time.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَأَى رَجُلاً يَسُوقُ بَدَنَةً فَقَالَ لَهُ ‏"‏ ارْكَبْهَا ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا بَدَنَةٌ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ ارْكَبْهَا وَيْلَكَ ‏"‏‏.‏ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ أَوْ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ‏.‏
