Show the chain
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ عَنْ جَبَلَةَ بْنِ سُحَيْمٍ
أَنَّ رَجُلاً سَأَلَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ عَنِ الأُضْحِيَةِ أَوَاجِبَةٌ هِيَ فَقَالَ ضَحَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ فَأَعَادَهَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ أَتَعْقِلُ ضَحَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ

That a man asked Ibn 'Umar about the Udhiyah, "Is it obligatory?" So he said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the Udhiyah as did the Muslims." He repeated the question. So he said: "Do you understand ?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ slaughtered as did the Muslims."
Notes
قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ الأُضْحِيَةَ لَيْسَتْ بِوَاجِبَةٍ وَلَكِنَّهَا سُنَّةٌ مِنْ سُنَنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُسْتَحَبُّ أَنْ يُعْمَلَ بِهَا وَهُوَ قَوْلُ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ
machine translationAbū ʿĪsā said: This is a good and sound (ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ) hadith. The practice according to this among the people of knowledge is that the sacrifice (uḍḥiyah) is not obligatory, but it is one of the practices of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and it is recommended to act upon it. This is the view of Sufyān al-Thawrī and Ibn al-Mubārak.
