حديث عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: الضَّحِيَّةُ كُنَّا نُمَلِّحُ مِنْهُ، فَنَقْدَمُ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِالْمَدِينَةِ، فَقَالَ: لَا تَأْكُلُوا إِلَاّ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيْسَتْ بِعَزِيمَةٍ، وَلكِنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُطْعِمَ مِنْهُ، وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ.
A'isha Narrated from:
We used to salt some of the meat of sacrifice and present it to the Prophet ﷺ at Al-Madîna. Once he said, “Do not eat (of that meat) for more than three days.” That was not a final order, but (that year) he wanted us to feed of it to others, Allâh knows better. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 477, Vol. 7 )
