It is narrated from Sayyiduna Laqit bin Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I presented myself before the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). And the shepherd brought a kid of a goat into the enclosure. (The Prophet, peace be upon him, ordered a goat to be slaughtered) and said: "Do not worry. We have a hundred goats, and we do not let them exceed a hundred. When the shepherd brings a newly born kid, we slaughter a goat in its place." Among the things the Prophet (peace be upon him) said at that time was also: "Do not beat your wife like a slave-girl, and when performing ablution, exaggerate in rinsing your nose except when you are fasting (then do not exaggerate)."
