Hazrat Jabir narrates that we used to not eat the meat of the sacrifice except during the days of Mina. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted us and said: Eat it and make it provision for your journey. So we used to eat it and make it provision for our journey. The narrator says that we asked Hazrat Ata: What is your opinion, is this command only regarding the Hadi of Tamattu'? He replied: No, I consider it to be regarding all Hadi (sacrificial animals).
