[Machine] The prohibition of alcohol was revealed only concerning two tribes from the Ansar who used to drink. When the people became intoxicated, they started committing foolish actions against each other. When they sobered up, a man would see the effects on his face, head, and beard, and he would say, "My brother so-and-so did this to me." They were brothers who had no animosity in their hearts. By Allah, if I had been merciful and compassionate towards them, he would not have treated me like this until animosity entered their hearts. So Allah revealed the following verse: "O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than Allah], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may be successful. Satan only wants to cause between you animosity and hatred through intoxicants and gambling and to avert you from the remembrance of Allah and from prayer. So will you not desist?" [Al-Ma'idah 91]. Some people among the pretentious ones said, "This is defilement, and it is in the stomach of so-and-so. Wasn't he killed on the day of Uhud?" So Allah revealed the following verse: "There shall be no blame upon those who have believed and done righteous deeds for what they have consumed in [another's] property when they fear Allah and believe" [Al-Ma'idah 93] until His statement: "Then fear Allah and amend that which is between you. And Allah loves the doers of good" [Al-Ma'idah 93].
