The Hajj is the fifth pillar among the pillars of Islam, which the Messenger of Allah ﷺhas explained its rituals both by his statements and actions. The noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), thereafter, transmitted them just as they learned them from the Prophet ﷺ. In this hadeeth, the Taabi’ee, Ziyaad ibn Jubayr reports that he saw ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) who happened to pass by a man who had made his badanah sit and lie down – a badanah happens to be specifically from the camels – on the ground at Minaa, in order to slaughter it, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) instructed him to keep it standing with its left leg ties, then to slaughter it while it is standing. He explained that this is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Nahr (slaughtering by stabbing) of camels consists of stabbing them with a dagger or something of that nature at the cavity between their bottom parts of necks and chests. It is said: the wisdom of specifying the camels with the act of Nahr while they are standing is due to their long necks. This is because if a camel was slaughtered at the area closer to its head, then the blood flowing from the heart to the area of slaughter would be at a greater distance, which would not assist the letting out of all the blood easily, contrary to the act of Nahr at the last part of the neck. It closes the distance and helps the heart with forcing the whole blood out. As for the cows and sheep, the normal slaughtering technique is suitable for them. This hadeeth highlights that one should teach the ignorant person and avoid remaining silent at seeing an act contradictory to the Sunnah, even if that act may be permissible. The statement of the Companion, “Part of the Sunnah is doing this in this manner,” takes the ruling of elevating that [act] to the Prophet ﷺ. .
