Muwatta Malik (Yahya) 1067 — Storing the meat of sacrificial animals
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ فَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ أَهْلُهُ لَحْمًا، فَقَالَ : انْظُرُوا أَنْ يَكُونَ هَذَا مِنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضْحَى، فَقَالُوا : هُوَ مِنْهَا، فَقَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ : أَلَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْهَا ؟ فَقَالُوا : إِنَّهُ قَدْ كَانَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْدَكَ أَمْرٌ، فَخَرَجَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ فَسَأَلَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَأُخْبِرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضْحَى بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ فَكُلُوا، وَتَصَدَّقُوا، وَادَّخِرُوا، وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنِ الِانْتِبَاذِ، فَانْتَبِذُوا وَكُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ، وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ، فَزُورُوهَا وَلَا تَقُولُوا هُجْرًا يَعْنِي لَا تَقُولُوا سُوءًا "
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) returned from a journey, and the people of his household placed meat before him. He said: "See, is this the meat of sacrifice?" They said: "It is indeed from the sacrifice." Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had forbidden this. The people said: "After you, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave another ruling in this matter." Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) left the house to investigate this matter. When news reached him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had said: "I had forbidden you from eating the meat of sacrifice after three days, but now eat, give in charity, and store it. And I had forbidden you from making nabidh in certain vessels, now make it in whichever vessel you wish, but whatever causes intoxication is forbidden. And I had forbidden you from visiting graves, now visit the graves, but do not utter anything evil from your mouths (i.e., words of disbelief or ungratefulness)."
