It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) forbade that anything from your sacrificial animals remain after three days.
Abdullah bin Ata narrates from his mother and grandmother Umm Ata, she says: It is as if even now we are seeing Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him), when he came to us on a white mule and said: O Umm Ata! Indeed, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the Muslims from eating the meat of their sacrifices after three days. She said: May my father be sacrificed for you, what is the ruling about the meat that is given to us as a gift? He said: Whatever is given to you as a gift, you may use it as you wish.
