( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ، ثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ النَّهْدِيُّ، ثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسْنَاءِ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ، عَنْ حَنَشِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ:
كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ يُضَحِّي بِكَبْشٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ( وَبِكَبْشٍ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ، قُلْنَا: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، تُضَحِّي عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - ﷺ ) قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُضَحِّيَ عَنْهُ أَبَدًا، فَأَنَا أُضَحِّي عَنْهُ أَبَدًا

ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib (may God be pleased with him) used to sacrifice one ram on behalf of the Messenger of God ﷺ (and one ram for himself. We said: O Commander of the Believers, you sacrifice on behalf of the Messenger of God ﷺ?) He said: The Messenger of God ﷺ commanded me to sacrifice on his behalf always, so I sacrifice on his behalf always.

أبو الحسناء الراوي عن الحكم اسمه الحسن ولا يعرف له حال
machine translationAbū al-Ḥasnāʾ, the narrator from al-Ḥakam, is named al-Ḥasan, and nothing is known of his condition.

لم أجد في التضحية عن الميت منفردا حديثا مرفوعا صحيحا وأما حديث علي المذكور في هذا الباب فضعيف
machine translationI have not found any sound raised (marfūʿ) hadith on sacrificing on behalf of the dead alone. As for the hadith of ʿAlī mentioned in this chapter, it is weak (ḍaʿīf).
in سنن البيهقي الكبرى, p. 19253 - Abū Bakr Aḥmad b. al-Ḥusayn al-Bayhaqī
تفرد به شريك بن عبد الله بإسناده وهو وإن ثبت يدل على جواز الأضحية عمن خرج من دار الدنيا من المسلمين
machine translationSharīk b. ʿAbdullāh was alone in narrating it with its chain. Even if it were established, it would indicate that it is permissible to sacrifice on behalf of those Muslims who have departed from this world.
