Aya 36
36
وَالبُدنَ جَعَلناها لَكُم مِن شَعائِرِ اللَّهِ لَكُم فيها خَيرٌ ۖ فَاذكُرُوا اسمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيها صَوافَّ ۖ فَإِذا وَجَبَت جُنوبُها فَكُلوا مِنها وَأَطعِمُوا القانِعَ وَالمُعتَرَّ ۚ كَذٰلِكَ سَخَّرناها لَكُم لَعَلَّكُم تَشكُرونَ

(Irfan-ul-Quran)

And We have made for you bigger sacrificial animals (i.e. camels and cows, etc.) from among the Signs of Allah. There is good in them for you. So line (them) up and (after lancing at the time of their slaughter) invoke the Name of Allah over them. Then, when they fall down on their sides, eat of it (too) and feed those who are sitting contented as well as the (needy) who beg. We have this way subjected them to you so that you may give thanks.
