2 أَيَّامُ التَّشْرِيقِ is an appellation of The three days next after the day of sacrifice: [i. e. the eleventh and twelfth and thirteenth days of Dhu-l-Hijjeh:] these days were so called because the flesh of the victims was therein cut into strips, and dried in the sun, or spread in the sun to dry: or because the victims were not sacrificed until the sun rose: or from the prayer of the day of sacrifice, which they follow: or because they used to say, [on that day,] in the Time of Ignorance, ثَبِيرْ كَيْمَا نُغِيرْ, which means Enter thou upon the time of sunrise, Thebeer, that we may push, or press, on, or forward, to return from Minè: (M: [see also 4 in art. غور:]) Aboo- Haneefeh used to hold that التَّشْرِيق means التَّكْبِير [i. e. the saying اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرْ]; but none beside him has held this opinion.
