Chapter 211 | The Case of One Who Sends an Offering Animal Voluntarily but Himself Stays at Home
4ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ خَارِجَةَ قَالَ إِنَّ مُرَاداً بَعَثَ بِبَدَنَةٍ وَأَمَرَ أَنْ تُقَلَّدَ وَتُشْعَرَ فِي يَوْمِ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّمَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ لا يَلْبَسَ الثِّيَابَ فَبَعَثَنِي إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) بِالْحِيرَةِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّ مُرَاداً صَنَعَ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَإِنَّهُ لا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَتْرُكَ الثِّيَابَ لِمَكَانِ زِيَادٍ فَقَالَ مُرْهُ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ الثِّيَابَ وَلْيَذْبَحْ بَقَرَةً يَوْمَ الأَضْحَى عَنْ نَفْسِهِ.
4. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Flarun ibn Kharijah who has said the following: “Murad once sent a badanah as offering and commanded to mark and tag it on such and such day. I then said that it is proper not to wear clothes. He then sent me to ‘Abd Allah , in al- Hirah, (a place in Iraq). I said to him (the Imam) that Murad has done such and such things and he is not able to ignore the clothes because of Ziyad. He (the Imam) said, ‘Instruct him to wear the clothes and slaughter a cow on the day of al-Adha’ for himself.’” NOTE:(Fatwa best explains Hadith 4)
