About the Hadith (The day of your fast is the day of your slaughter)

The question:

A person from the virtues people who are subscribed in this honorable magazine asked about a hadith that is commonly said: “the day of your fast is the day of your slaughter”, is it a saying of the prophet -peace be upon him- ?

The answer:

This hadith has no base according to the consensus of the hadith scholars, and Imam Ahmad declared that and others did too; like Az-Zrkshy and As-Soyoty as in “Kashf Al-Khafa’“ for shaykh Isma’il Al-’ajlony (2/398 no. 3263) and as for his saying: “it was overlooked by As-Sakhawy” because he forgot it, or it is in accordance to the version he received from “Al-Makased Al-Hasanah”, because he (As-Sakhawy) did mention it in this book (page 480 no. 1355 Al-Khangy) where he said: “It has no origin, as Imam Ahmad and others said.”

And Among those who asserted that this hadith has no orgin; Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar in “Sharh ‘eloom Al-Hadith” (page 224) and he quoted from Muhammad bin Abdulallah bin ‘Abdul Hakam –Trustworthy Jurist from the companions of Malik- that he said: “It’s from the talk of liars.” Az-Zrkshy also narrated it in “Al-La’ale’ Al-Manthorah” (page 7 from my two scripts) from the handwriting of Ibn As-Salaah from Ibn Abd Al-Hakam and he approved it.

And my greetings to the questioner, and the mercy and blessings of Allah,
