This hadith is about eating the flesh of sacrificed animals. Allah's Messenger forbade eating such meat beyond three days, but then he allowed it with a condition that one should make a provision and keep it. This means that one should not waste food and must use whatever they have in moderation. The Prophet was teaching us to be mindful of our resources and not to be wasteful or extravagant in our consumption habits. We can learn from this hadith that we should always think before we consume something, so as not to waste any resources unnecessarily. We should also remember that everything we have is given by Allah, so we must use them wisely and responsibly.
