Umm ‘Ata and others say: By Allah! It feels as if we can still see Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him), when he came to us riding on his white mule and said: O Umm ‘Ata! The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the Muslims from eating the meat of their sacrificial animals for more than three days. I said: May my father be sacrificed for you, if sacrificial meat comes to us as a gift from somewhere, what should we do with it? He replied: Whatever comes to you as a gift, you have discretion regarding it.
