Hadith 4710

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ نَهَانَا عَنْ أَنْ نَأْكُلَ لُحُومَ نُسُكِنَا فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ فِي سَفَرٍ ثُمَّ قَدِمْتُ عَلَى أَهْلِي وَذَلِكَ بَعْدَ الْأَضْحَى بِأَيَّامٍ قَالَ فَأَتَتْنِي صَاحِبَتِي بِسِلْقٍ قَدْ جَعَلَتْ فِيهِ قَدِيدًا فَقُلْتُ لَهَا أَنَّى لَكِ هَذَا الْقَدِيدُ فَقَالَتْ مِنْ ضَحَايَانَا قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا أَوَلَمْ يَنْهَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَنْ نَأْكُلَهَا فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ قَالَتْ إِنَّهُ قَدْ رَخَّصَ لِلنَّاسِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَلَمْ أُصَدِّقْهَا حَتَّى بَعَثْتُ إِلَى أَخِي قَتَادَةَ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ وَكَانَ بَدْرِيًّا أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَبَعَثَ إِلَيَّ أَنْ كُلْ طَعَامَكَ فَقَدْ صَدَقَتْ قَدْ أَرْخَصَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ فِي ذَلِكَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) had forbidden us from eating the meat of sacrifice for more than three days. Then I went on a journey, and when I returned to my wife, only a few days had passed since Eid al-Adha. My wife served beetroot cooked with pieces of meat. I asked: Where did these pieces come from? She said: It is the meat from our sacrifices. I said: Did not the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) forbid us from eating it for more than three days? She said: Yes, but after that, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) granted people permission. I did not confirm my wife's statement and sent a message to my brother, Sayyiduna Qatadah bin Nu'man Badrī (may Allah be pleased with him), to ask him about this. He replied with this message: Eat your food, your wife is telling the truth, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) has granted Muslims permission regarding this matter.
