“I used to forbid you to visit the graves, but now visit them, for they remind you of the Hereafter. And I forbade you to drink from (certain type of) vessels, but now drink from them, but avoid everything that causes intoxication. And I forbade you to keep the sacrificial meat after three days, but now keep it as long as you wish.ʿ It was narrated that ‘Ali ؓ said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade visiting graves... and he narrated a similar report, except that he said: ʿand beware of every intoxicant.ʿ  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ وَعَنِ الْأَوْعِيَةِوَأَنْ تُحْبَسَ لُحُومُ الْأَضَاحِيِّ بَعْدَ ثَلاثٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَزُورُوهَا فَإِنَّهَا تُذَكِّرُكُمِ الْآخِرَةَ وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنِ الْأَوْعِيَةِ فَاشْرَبُوا فِيهَا وَاجْتَنِبُوا كُلَّ مَا أَسْكَرَ وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِيِّ أَنْ تَحْبِسُوهَا بَعْدَ ثَلاثٍ فَاحْبِسُوا مَا بَدَا لَكُمْ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade visiting graves, eating the meat of sacrificial animals after three days, drinking intoxicants in containers made of gourd, hollowed stones, varnished pots, and dried animal droppings. He said, "After that, I was forbidden from three things, and then it appeared to me that I forbade you from visiting graves. Then it appeared to me that it softens the heart, brings tears to the eyes, and reminds of the Hereafter, so visit them and do not say anything offensive. And I forbade you from eating the meat of sacrificial animals after three nights, and then it appeared to me that people treat their guests kindly and keep food for their absentees, so keep what you wish. And I forbid you from drinking intoxicants in these vessels, so drink what you wish, but do not drink something that causes intoxication. Whoever wants can pour his drink into a leather skin."  

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ وَعَنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِيِّ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ وَعَنِ النَّبِيذِ فِي الدُّبَّاءِ وَالنَّقِيرِ وَالْحَنْتَمِ وَالْمُزَفَّتِ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَلَا إِنِّي قَدْ كُنْتُ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ ثُمَّ بَدَا لِي فِيهِنَّ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ ثُمَّ بَدَا لِي أَنَّهَا تُرِقُّ الْقَلْبَ وَتُدْمِعُ الْعَيْنَ وَتُذَكِّرُ الْآخِرَةَ فَزُورُوهَا وَلَا تَقُولُوا هُجْرًا وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِيِّ أَنْ تَأْكُلُوهَا فَوْقَ ثَلَاثِ لَيَالٍ ثُمَّ بَدَا لِي أَنَّ النَّاسَ يُتْحِفُونَ ضَيْفَهُمْ وَيُخَبِّئُونَ لِغَائِبِهِمْ فَأَمْسِكُوا مَا شِئْتُمْ وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنِ النَّبِيذِ فِي هَذِهِ الْأَوْعِيَةِ فَاشْرَبُوا بِمَا شِئْتُمْ وَلَا تَشْرَبُوا مُسْكِرًا مَنْ شَاءَ أَوْكَى سِقَاءَهُ عَلَى إِثْمٍ  

[Machine] "Where do you want to go, Abu Abdullah?" He said, "I want to go to Abu Said al-Khudri." So I went with him. Then Ibn Umar said, "O Abu Said, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbidding the consumption of sacrificial meat after three days. So eat and save some, for Allah has provided abundance. And I heard him forbidding certain drinks and throwing them away, so drink and know that every intoxicant is forbidden. And I heard him forbidding the visitation of graves, so if you visit them, do not say words of paganism."  

لَهُ أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ؟ قَالَ أَرَدْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَنْهَى عَنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِيِّ وَعَنْ أَشْيَاءَ مِنَ الْأَشْرِبَةِ وَعَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ وَقَدْ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّكَ مُحَدِّثٌ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ سَمِعَتْ أُذُنَايَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ إِنِّي نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ أَكْلِ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِيِّ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ فَكُلُوا وَادَّخِرُوا فَقَدْ جَاءَ اللهُ بِالسَّعَةِ وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ مِنَ الْأَشْرِبَةِ أَوِ الْأَنْبِذَةِ فَاشْرَبُوا وَكُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَإِنْ زُرْتُمُوهَا فَلَا تَقُولُوا هُجْرًا  

"إِنِّى كُنْتُ نَهَيْتُكُم عَنْ زيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَزُورُوها فَإِنَّهَا نُذَكِّرُكُم الآخِرَة، ونهيْتُكُم عن الأَوْعِيةِ فاشْرَبوا مِنْها وَاجْنَنِبُوا كُلَّ مُسْكِر، ونَهْيُتكُم عَنِ لُحُوم الأَضَاحِى أَن تُمسِكُوها بعد "ثَلَاث" فَاحْبسُوا مَا بَدَا لَكُمْ" .
