Sunan Abi Dawud
كتاب الضحايا
Sacrifice (Kitab Al-Dahaya)
" سَمُّوا اللَّهَ وَكُلُوا "
(the narrator Musa did not mention the words "from 'Aishah" in his version from Hammad, and al-Qa'nabi also did not mention the word "from 'Aishah" in his version from Malik). They (the people) said: Messenger of Allah, there are people here, recent converts from polytheism, who bring us meat and we do not know whether or not they mentioned Allah's name over it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Mention Allah's name and eat.
