حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ جُرَىِّ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ النَّهْدِيِّ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ

يُضَحَّى بِأَعْضَبِ الْقَرْنِ وَالأُذُنِ ‏.‏

Narrated 'Ali:

"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prohibited that an animal with a A'dab (stump) horn or ear should be slaughtered as a sacrifice." Qatadah (one of the narrators) said: "So I mentioned this to Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab and he said: 'The A'dab is that which equals or more than that.'"

( قَالَ قَتَادَةُ فَذَكَرْت ذَلِكَ لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ ) وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي دَاوُدَ قُلْتُ يَعْنِي لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ مَا الْأَعْضَبُ ( فَقَالَ الْعَضَبُ مَا بَلَغَ النِّصْفَ فَمَا فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ ) قَالَ الشَّوْكَانِيُّ فِي الْحَدِيثِ دَلِيلٌ عَلَى أَنَّهَا لَا تُجْزِئُ التَّضْحِيَةُ بِأَعْضَبِ الْقَرْنِ وَالْأُذُنِ وَهُوَ مَا ذَهَبَ نِصْفُ…
