Question: What should
one say when slaughtering the Udhhiyah?
Answer: It is
obligatory at the time of slaughtering the Udhhiyah that one should say: (( بسم الله )) “Bismillaah”, In the of Allaah.
It is Mustahab (preferable) that one should also add to it:
(( والله أكبر ، اللهم
هذا منك ولك فتقبله مني ))
“Wa-llaahu Akbar, Allaahumma haadhaa minka wa laka, faa taqabbalhu minnee”, And
Allaah is the Greatest! O Allaah! This is from You and to You. So accept it
from me.
[ بسم الله ، والله أكبر ، اللهم هذا منك ولك ، فتقبله
مني ]
If it is on behalf of someone else then one should say: (( فتقبله عن [فلان] )) “faa taqabbalhu `an [fulaan]”,
So accept it on behalf of so-and-so [one should mention the name of that
person]
What is obligatory here is to say Bismillaah; the rest is Mustahab
and is not obligatory.
Anas Ibn Maalik رضي الله عنه said: ❝The
Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم
sacrificed two horned rams that were white with black markings. He slaughtered
them with his own hand, saying: Bismillaah and Allaahu akbar, and put his foot
on their necks.❞
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5558, 5565) and Saheeh Muslim (4841,
4842)]
`Aaishah رضي الله عنها
narrated that the Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم ordered that a horned
ram with black legs, black belly and black (circles) round the eyes be brought
to him so that he could sacrifice it. He صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
❝O `Aaishah! Give me the knife.❞ Then he صلى الله عليه وسلم said: ❝Sharpen
it on a stone.❞ So she did that, then he صلى الله عليه وسلم took
it and took the ram, and he lay it down and then sacrificed it, saying: ❝Bismillaah,
Allaahumma Taqabbal min Muhammadin wa `Aali-Muhammadin, wa min Ummati
Muhammadin “In the name of Allaah. O Allaah! Accept (this sacrifice) from
Muhammad and the family of Muhammad and the Ummah of Muhammad”❞.
[Saheeh Muslim (4845)]
Jaabir ibn `Abdallaah رضي الله عنهما said:
I was present with the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم on the day of
al-Adhha at the prayer place. When he had finished his Khutbah (sermon) he came
down from his Minbar and a ram was brought which the Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم slaughtered with his
own hand. He صلى الله عليه وسلم said: ❝“In the name of Allaah,
Allaah is Most Great. This is on behalf of myself and on behalf of those of my Ummah
who have not offered a sacrifice.❞
[Sunan Abu Dawood (2810) and Sunan al-Tirmidhee (1521) and
graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee]
