Fathwa - Ismaa'eel was ransomed with a ram, not with camels

Question
A/A when Ibraahim (AS) saw a dream, in which Allah had ordered him to
scarifies his son. Had Ibraahim (AS) slaughtered 100 camels in spite
of that on the first day, then again 100 camels on the second day. is
slaughtering of camel by him is true, if yes please give me its
reference
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His Slave and Messenger.
The correct opinion that most scholars adopt is what Ibn Katheer
stated that Ismaa'eel ) Ishmael ( was ransomed with a ram. It was
reported from Ibn 'Abbaas that he was ransomed with a mountain sheep.
At-Tabari reported that Mujaahid said: " He was ransomed with a ewe. "
We did not find anyone stating that he was ransomed with camels.
Rather, Al-Qurtubi confirmed that redemption was not done with camels
or cows, as he said: " That was a ram not a camel nor a cow. "
The story of the redemption of 'Abdul-Muttalib , where he ransomed his
son 'Abdullaah , the father of the Messenger of Allaah , indicates
that he fulfilled his vow with camels; as he had made avow to
sacrifice one of his adult sons and thus he ransomed him with 100
camels as reported inthe books of biography and history.
Allaah Knows best.
