أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ فِي حَدِيثِهِ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ کُلَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ کُنَّا فِي سَفَرٍ فَحَضَرَ الْأَضْحَی فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ مِنَّا يَشْتَرِي الْمُسِنَّةَ بِالْجَذَعَتَيْنِ وَالثَّلَاثَةِ فَقَالَ لَنَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ مُزَيْنَةَ کُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَحَضَرَ هَذَا الْيَوْمُ فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَطْلُبُ الْمُسِنَّةَ بِالْجَذَعَتَيْنِ وَالثَّلَاثَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ الْجَذَعَ يُوفِي مِمَّا يُوفِي مِنْهُ الثَّنِيُّ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4398
It was narrated from ‘Asim bin Kulaib that his father said: “We were on a journey and the day of Al Ad/ came, so we started to buy sheep, a Musinnah for two or three Jadh’ahs. A man from Muzainah said to us: ‘We were with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلمon a journey when this came, and we started to look for sheep, (offering to buy) a Musinnah for two or three Jadh’ahs. Then the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: “A .Jadh’ah is sufficient for that for which a ThanI is sufficient.” (Sahih)
