English translation

2812. It was reported from 'Āishah who said: "A delegation of Bedouins attended Al-Adhā during the time of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Store three days (worth of meat), and give what remains in charity.'" She said: "After that, the people said to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ: 'O Messenger of Allāh! People used to use their sacrifices, melting the fat from them, and making water skins.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'And what is the problem?' — or as he said — they replied: 'O Messenger of Allāh! You have prohibited us from keeping the meat of the Udhiyah for more than three days.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'I only prohibited you (from that) due to the delegation that came to you; so eat, give in charity and store.'" (Sahih)

2812 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَتْ: سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ، تَقُولُ: دَفَّ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ حَضْرَةَ الْأَضْحَى فِي زَمَانِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «ادَّخِرُوا الثُّلُثَ، وَتَصَدَّقُوا بِمَا بَقِيَ». قَالَتْ: فَلَمَّا كَانَ بَعْدُ ذَلِكَ قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ كَانَ النَّاسُ يَنْتَفِعُونَ مِنْ ضَحَايَاهُمْ، وَيَجْمُلُونَ مِنْهَا الْوَدَكَ، وَيَتَّخِذُونَ مِنْهَا الْأَسْقِيَةَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَمَا ذَاكَ؟» - أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ - قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَهَيْتَ عَنْ إِمْسَاكِ لُحُومِ الضَّحَايَا بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّمَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ الدَّافَّةِ الَّتِي دَفَّتْ عَلَيْكُمْ، فَكُلُوا وَتَصَدَّقُوا وَادَّخِرُوا»
