حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ
أَنَّ أَبَا بُرْدَةَ بْنَ نِيَارٍ ذَبَحَ ضَحِيَّتَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَذْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الأَضْحَى فَزَعَمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَعُودَ بِضَحِيَّةٍ أُخْرَى قَالَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ لاَ أَجِدُ إِلاَّ جَذَعًا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ وَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدْ إِلاَّ جَذَعًا فَاذْبَحْ

ahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Bushayr ibn Yasar that Abu Burda ibn Niyar sacrificed an animal before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sacrificed on the Day of Sacrifice. He asserted that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him to sacrifice another animal, and he, Abu Burda, said, "What if I can only find an animal less than one year old, Messenger of Allah?" He had said, "If you can only find a young animal, then sacrifice it."
