Q
How does the hadith illustrate the Prophet’s (ﷺ) flexibility in accommodating individual circumstances?
A
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) offered the prayer on the day of Nahr and then delivered the Khutba and ordered that
whoever had slaughtered his sacrifice before the prayer should repeat it, that is, should slaughter
another sacrifice. Then a person from the Ansar stood up and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! because of my
neighbors (he described them as being very needy or poor) I slaughtered before the prayer. I have a
young she-goat which, in my opinion, is better than two sheep.” The Prophet (ﷺ) gave him the permission
for slaughtering it as a sacrifice.
