Mikhnaf ibn Sulaym reported: "We were standing with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at Arafat when I heard him say, 'O people, every household must offer a sacrifice 2 (Udhiyah) and an Atirah every year. Do you know what the Atirah is? It is what you call the Rajabiyah.'" [Narrated by Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Nasa’i, and Ibn Majah]
Abu Dawud said: "The Atirah is abrogated." The author of Mishkat said in this context: "Tirmidhi said, 'This is a strange (gharib) hadith with a weak chain.'" However, Mirqat said: "Tirmidhi’s wording is, 'This is a strange hadith, and we do not know it to be marfu’ (elevated to the Prophet) except through this chain from Ibn Awn.' Tirmidhi did not explicitly declare the chain weak, as found in many current copies, and this is how the author of Al-Takhrij narrated it."

(2) The statement: "Every household must offer a sacrifice." In Al-Izhar, it is said: "Abu Hanifah used this hadith as evidence that the Udhiyah is obligatory for every resident of a city who owns the nisab (minimum wealth)." This is mentioned in Al-Mirqat.
