4437. It was narrated from 'Abdur-Raḥmân bin 'Ābis that his father said: 'I came in to 'Āishah and said: 'Did the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ forbid (eating) the meat of the sacrificial animals after three days?' She said: 'Yes. Hardship had befallen the people, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ wanted the rich to feed the poor.' Then she said: 'I remember the family of Muḥammad ﷺ eating the trottlers after fifteen days.' I said: 'Why is that?' She laughed and said: 'The family of Muḥammad never ate their fill of bread and something to go with it, for three days in row, until he met Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime.'" (Sahîh)
