Hazrat Ibn Buraidah narrates from his father that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was once sitting in a gathering and was extremely sad. One of the people said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What is the reason that you appear to be sad?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "Yes, I was remembering my mother." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I had forbidden you from eating the meat of sacrifice for more than three days, so (now) you may eat it yourselves, feed others, and store as much as you wish. And I had forbidden you from visiting graves, so whoever wishes to visit his mother's grave may do so. And I had forbidden you from using gourd vessels, green-colored vessels, vessels dyed with green oil, and bowl-shaped hollowed-out wood in which date wine is made; so avoid every intoxicating thing and drink whatever else you wish (that does not intoxicate)."
