Sunan an-Nasa'i 4397
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ يَحْيَى، ح وَأَنْبَأَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ بْنِ نِيَارٍ، أَنَّهُ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يُعِيدَ ‏.‏ قَالَ عِنْدِي عَنَاقُ جَذَعَةٍ هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ مُسِنَّتَيْنِ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏ ‏ ‏.‏ فِي حَدِيثِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لاَ أَجِدُ إِلاَّ جَذَعَةً ‏.‏ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَذْبَحَ ‏.‏

It was narrated from Abu Burdah bin Niyar that he slaughtered (his sacrifice) before the Prophet and the Prophet told him to repeat it. He said:

"I have a Jadh'ah she-goat that is dearer to me than two Muslinnahs." He said: "Sacrifice it," According to the Hadith of: Ubaidullah, he said: "I cannot find anything but a Jadh'ah," and he told him to slaughter it. (Sahih )
