Sahih Muslim Hadith 5230 – The Permissibility

English

[5230] 83 – ( … ) It was narrated that Yaliya bin 'Umar Al-Nakha'I said: "Some people asked Ibn 'Abbâs about buying and selling Khamr and dealing in it. He said: 'Are you Muslims?' They said: 'Yes.' He said: 'It is not permissible to buy it, sell it or deal in it.' They asked him about NabIdh and he said: 'The Messenger of Allah went Out on a journey, then he came back and some of his Companions had made NabIdh in Al-Hantam, An-Na qIr and gourds. He ordered that it be spilled out, then he ordered that raisins and water be put in a skin overnight. The next day he drank from it, and the following night, and the next day until evening came. He drank from it and gave it to others to drink, and the following morning he poured away whatever was left of it."
