Question

Is this narration authentic?

ذبح رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ضحيته، ثم قال: «يا ثوبان، أصلح لحم هذه»، فلم أزل أطعمه منها حتى قدم المدينة

 

Answer

Imam Muslim (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith in his Sahih. The Hadith is therefore authentic.

(Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 1975)

Translation

Sayyiduna Thawban (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reports, “Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) slaughtered his udhiyah/qurbani animal and then said, ‘Prepare/preserve this meat.’ I [did so] and continued to feed him the meat until he reached Madinah.'”

Other narrations suggest that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said this during Hajjatul Wada’ [the final Hajj]. Therefore Thawban (radiyallahu ‘anhu) would have fed him the meat on the return journey, until they reached Madinah Munawwarah.

(Refer: Takmilah Fathul Mulhim, Hadith: 1975)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

صحيح مسلم:
(١٩٧٥)  
حدثني زهير بن حرب، حدثنا معن بن عيسى، حدثنا معاوية بن صالح، عن أبي الزاهرية، عن جبير بن نفير، عن ثوبان، قال: ذبح رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ضحيته، ثم قال: «يا ثوبان، أصلح لحم هذه»، فلم أزل أطعمه منها حتى قدم المدينة.

تكملة فتح الملهم:
(١٩٧٥)  
قوله: (أصلح لحم هذه) يعني: افعل ما يصلحه ويمكن به ادخاره، وسيأتي أنه قال ذلك في حجة الوداع.
