Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنِي زَيْنَبُ عَنْ أَبِي سِعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِيِّ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فَقَالَ فَقَدِمَ قَتَادَةُ بْنُ النُّعْمَانِ أَخُو أَبِي سَعِيدٍ لِأُمِّهِ فَقَرَّبُوا إِلَيْهِ مِنْ قَدِيدِ الْأَضْحَى فَقَالَ كَأَنَّ هَذَا مِنْ قَدِيدِ الْأَضْحَى قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَقَالَ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ نَهَى عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ أَوَقَدْ حَدَثَ فِيهِ أَمْرٌ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ نَهَى أَنْ نَحْبِسَهُ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ رَخَّصَ لَنَا أَنْ نَأْكُلَ وَنَدَّخِرَ.
English Translation
Yahya told us, from Sa'd ibn Ishaq, who said: Zaynab narrated to me, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, that the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade eating the meat of sacrificial animals beyond three days. He said: Then Qatadah ibn al-Nu'man, the maternal brother of Abu Sa'id, arrived, and they brought him some dried meat of the sacrifice, and he said: "It is as though this is from the sacrificial meat." They said: "Yes." He said: "Did the Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) not forbid it?" Abu Sa'id said to him: "Has something new happened concerning it? The Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) had forbidden us to keep it beyond three days, then he permitted us to eat and store it."
