It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that someone asked the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about the ruling of riding a sacrificial animal (when a person is going for Hajj and has no other means of transport). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him, "Ride on it." He submitted, "This is a sacrificial animal." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) again said, "Ride on it."
