Mishkat al-Masabih #2533
The Rites of Pilgrimage
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ نُبَيْشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسلم: «إِن كُنَّا نهينَا عَنْ لُحُومِهَا أَنْ تَأْكُلُوهَا فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ لِكَيْ تسَعْكم. جاءَ اللَّهُ بالسَّعَةِ فكُلوا وادَّخِرُوا وأْتَجِروا. أَلَا وَإِنَّ هَذِهِ الْأَيَّامَ أَيَّامُ أَكْلٍ وَشُرْبٍ وذِكْرِ اللَّهِ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Nubaisha reported God’s messenger as saying, “I forbade you to eat their meat for more than three days in order that you might have abundance ; but God has produced abundance, so you may eat, store up and seek reward. These days are days of eating, drinking and remembrance of God."
Abu Dawud transmitted it.
