I asked the Prophet ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah! we live in a cold land in which we do heavy work and we make a liquor from wheat to get strength from if for our work and to stand the cold of our country. He asked: Is it intoxicating? I replied: Yes. He said: You must avoid it. I said: The people will not abandon it. He said: If they do not abandon it, fight with them.

[Machine] I asked the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we live in a cold land where we engage in strenuous work. We take a drink made from this wheat to fortify ourselves for our work and against the cold of our land." He asked, "Does it cause intoxication?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Then avoid it." Then I approached him again and said the same thing. He asked, "Does it cause intoxication?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Then avoid it." Then I said, "But people cannot give it up." He said, "If they do not give it up, then kill them." And so on.
