Hadith 28:99

Abu Abd al-Rahman narrated to us, Sa’id narrated to us, ‘Ayyash ibn ‘Abbas narrated to me, from ‘Isa ibn Hilal al-Sadafi, from ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr, who said: A man came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and said: "Teach me to recite, O Messenger of Allah." He said to him: "Recite three from those that begin with 'Alif-Lam-Ra'." The man said: "My age has advanced, my heart has become hard, and my tongue has become thick." He said: "Then recite from those that begin with 'Ha-Mim'." The man said the same as his first statement. He said: "Recite three from the 'Musabbihat' (those that begin with the glorification of Allah)." The man said the same as his statement. The man said: "But teach me, O Messenger of Allah, a comprehensive surah." So he taught him: "When the earth is shaken (Idha zulzilat al-ardu)..." until he finished it. The man said: "By the One who sent you with the truth, I will never add anything to it." Then the man turned away. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: "The little man has succeeded, the little man has succeeded." Then he said: "Bring him to me." So he came to him, and he said to him: "I have been commanded regarding the Day of Sacrifice, which Allah has made an Eid for this nation." The man said: "What do you think if I do not possess anything except the milking-camel of my son, should I sacrifice it?" He said: "No, but you should take from your hair, trim your nails, clip your mustache, and shave your pubic hair; that is the completion of your sacrifice in the sight of Allah."

حدثنا أبو عبد الرحمن، حدثنا سعيد، حدثني عياش بن عباس، عن عيسى بن هلال الصدفي، عن عبد الله بن عمرو، قال: أتى رجل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال: " أقرئني يا رسول الله، قال له: " اقرأ ثلاثا من ذات الر "، فقال الرجل: كبرت سني، واشتد قلبي، وغلظ لساني، قال : " فاقرأ من ذات حم " فقال: مثل مقالته الأولى، فقال: " اقرأ ثلاثا من المسبحات "، فقال: مثل مقالته، فقال الرجل: ولكن أقرئني يا رسول الله سورة جامعة فأقرأه: إذا زلزلت الأرض حتى إذا فرغ منها قال الرجل: والذي بعثك بالحق، لا أزيد عليها أبدا، ثم أدبر الرجل فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " أفلح الرويجل، أفلح الرويجل "، ثم قال: علي به، فجاءه، فقال له: " أمرت بيوم الأضحى، جعله الله عيدا لهذه الأمة "، فقال الرجل: أرأيت إن لم أجد إلا منيحة ابني، أفأضحي بها؟ قال: " لا، ولكن تأخذ من شعرك، وتقلم أظفارك، وتقص شاربك، وتحلق عانتك، فذلك تمام أضحيتك عند الله " . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
