أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ عَنْ مَالِکٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَی رَجُلًا يَسُوقُ بَدَنَةً قَالَ ارْکَبْهَا قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا بَدَنَةٌ قَالَ ارْکَبْهَا وَيْلَکَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ أَوْ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 2805
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم saw a man driving a Badanah (sacrificial camel) and said: “Ride it.” He said: “Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, it is a Badanah.” He said: “Ride it, woe to you!” the second or third time. (Sahih)
