It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had forbidden visiting graves, using certain specific utensils, and keeping the meat of sacrificial animals for more than three days. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, I had forbidden you from visiting graves, so now you may visit them, for they remind you of the Hereafter. And I had forbidden you from using certain utensils, so now you may drink from them, but avoid every intoxicating thing. And I had forbidden you from keeping the meat of sacrificial animals for more than three days, so now you may keep it for as long as you find appropriate.
