Summary of Jami at-Tirmidhi Hadith 1507
Hadith 1507 is brief but meaningful. Ibn Umar says that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم stayed in Al-Madinah for ten years performing the Udhiyah. For people searching Prophet qurbani every year, udhiyah in Madinah, or ten years sacrifice hadith, this narration points to regular practice. It does not describe the animal, the share, or the distribution. Its clear message is that Udhiyah was not a one-time act in this report. It was connected with the Prophet’s years in Madinah. A careful explanation should not add details that are not here, but it can highlight the steady nature of the practice mentioned.
What we learn from this hadith
- The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم performed Udhiyah during his ten years in Madinah.
- The report shows regular practice, not a single isolated event.
- The hadith does not specify animal type or distribution.
- It teaches respect for the Prophet’s repeated example.
