Sahih al-Bukhari Book 73, Hadith 27
the freed slave of Ibn Azhar that he witnessed the Day of `Id-al-Adha with `Umar bin Al-Khattab.
`Umar offered the `Id prayer before the sermon and then delivered the sermon before the people,
saying, "O people! Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) has forbidden you to fast (on the first day of) each of these two
'Ida, for one of them is the Day of breaking your fast, and the other is the one, on which you eat the
meat of your sacrifices."
We used to salt some of the meat of sacrifice and present it to the Prophet (ﷺ) at Medina. Once he said, "Do not eat (of that meat) for more than three days." That was not a final order, but (that year) he wanted us to feed of it to others, Allah knows better.
(in continuation of above). Then I witnessed the `Id with `Uthman bin `Affan, and that was on a Friday. He offered the prayer before the sermon, saying, "O people! Today you have two 'Its (festivals) together, so whoever of those who live at Al-`Awali (suburbs) would like to wait for the Jumua prayer, he may wait, and whoever would like to return (home) Is granted my permission to do so."
