Forbidding grave visitation and every intoxicant

ahmad:1237ʿAffān > Ḥammād b. Salamah > ʿAlī b. Zayd > Rabīʿah b. al-Nābighah > abīhi > ʿAlī

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade visiting graves. Then he mentioned its meaning, except that he said: "And beware of every intoxicant."

أحمد:١٢٣٧حَدَّثَنَاهُ عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ النَّابِغَةِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ، فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَكُلَّ مُسْكِرٍ»
