বাংলা অনুবাদ
আহমাদ ইবনু ইউনুস (রহঃ) ..... জাবির (রাযিঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমরা মুসিন্নাহ্ (দুধ দাঁত পড়ে গেছে এমন পশু) ছাড়া কুরবানী করবে না। তবে এটা তোমাদের জন্য কষ্টকর মনে হলে তোমরা ছ'মাসের মেষ-শাবক কুরবানী করতে পার। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৪৯২২, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)
