[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited us from eating the meat of our sacrificial animals for more than three days. I went on a journey and then returned to my family. They said, "He has given permission to the people after that." I did not believe them until I sent a message to my brother Qatadah ibn Nu'man, who was from Badr, asking him about it. He replied, "He has sent a message to me saying that if you have eaten your food, then you have truly believed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has given permission to the Muslims regarding that."
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ نَهَانَا أَنْ نَأْكُلَ لُحُومَ نُسُكِنَا فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ فَخَرَجْتُ فِي سَفَرٍ ثُمَّ قَدِمْتُ عَلَى أَهْلِي فَقَالَتْ إِنَّهُ رَخَّصَ لِلنَّاسِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَلَمْ أُصَدِّقْهَا حَتَّى بَعَثْتُ إِلَى أَخِي قَتَادَةَ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ وَكَانَ بَدْرِيًّا أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَبَعَثَ إِلِيَّ أَنْ كُلْ طَعَامَكَ فَقَدْ صَدَقَتْ قَدْ أَرْخَصَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ فِي ذَلِكَ
