The answer

"Al-budn" refers to camels, or both camels and cattle together. They are called by this name because they are driven for Hajj. They are among the signs of Allah (sha'a'ir Allah), and sacrificing them is an act of closeness to Allah and obedience to Him. They contain benefit for people and a great reward. They are the best of what can be offered to His Sacred House.
