ahmad:14412Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd > Ibn Jurayj > ʿAṭāʾ > Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh

We did not eat the flesh of our sacrificial animals beyond three days in Mina. Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ permitted us saying: Eat and make it a provision (for journey). I asked 'Ata' whether Jabir had also said: Till we came to Medina. He said: Yes. (Using translation from Muslim 1972b)   

أحمد:١٤٤١٢حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَطَاءٌ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ كُنَّا لَا نَأْكُلُ مِنْ لُحُومِ الْبُدْنِ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَ مِنًى فَرَخَّصَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ كُلُوا وَتَزَوَّدُوا قَالَ فَأَكَلْنَا وَتَزَوَّدْنَا قُلْتُ لِعَطَاءٍ حَتَّى جِئْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ؟ قَالَ لَا

ʿAta' said, "I heard Jabir bin ʿAbdullah saying, 'We never ate the meat of the Budn for more than three days of Mina. Later, the Prophet ﷺ gave us permission by saying: 'Eat and take (meat) with you. So we ate (some) and took (some) with us.' " I asked ʿAta', "Did Jabir say (that they went on eating the meat) till they reached Medina?" ʿAta' replied, "No."
