1. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from ‘Abd Allah ibn Sinan who has said the following
“This is about the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, ’Pronounce the name of Allah on them while lined up. . . (22:36) He (the Imam) said that this is when they are lined up for slaughtering. When their front legs are tied down between the feet to the knees, and ’falling of their sides’ is a reference to their reaching the ground.’”
1ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ الله عَلَيْها صَوافَّ قَالَ
ذَلِكَ حِينَ تَصُفُّ لِلنَّحْرِ تَرْبِطُ يَدَيْهَا مَا بَيْنَ الْخُفِّ إِلَى الرُّكْبَةِ وَوُجُوبُ جُنُوبِهَا إِذَا وَقَعَتْ عَلَى الأَرْضِ.
