حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سِبَاعِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أُمِّ کُرْزٍ قَالَتْ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ أَقِرُّوا الطَّيْرَ عَلَی مَکِنَاتِهَا قَالَتْ وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ عَنْ الْغُلَامِ شَاتَانِ وَعَنْ الْجَارِيَةِ شَاةٌ لَا يَضُرُّکُمْ أَذُکْرَانًا کُنَّ أَمْ إِنَاثًا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2835
Narrated Umm Kurz: I heard the Prophet ﷺ say: Let the birds stay in their roosts. She said: I also heard him say: Two sheep are to be sacrificed for a boy and one for a girl, but it does you no harm whether they are male or female.
