[Machine] I was standing among them, giving them water to drink on that day. A man entered upon them and said, "Do you not know that alcohol has been forbidden?" They said, "O Anas, pour it out." So I poured it out, and I swear by Allah, they did not consume it again until they met Allah. I asked, "What was their drink then?" He said, "It was vinegar and dates." Abu Bakr bin Anas and Anas were present in the gathering, and Anas did not deny that.

كُنْتُ قَائِمًا عَلَى عُمُومَتِي أَسْقِيهِمْ وَهُمْ يَشْرَبُونَ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَرَابًا لَهُمْ إِذْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ أَلَا هَلْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنَّ الْخَمْرَ قَدْ حُرِّمَتْ؟ قَالُوا يَا أَنَسُ اكْفَأْهَا فَأَكْفَأْتُهَا فَوَاللهِ مَا عَادُوا فِيهَا حَتَّى لَقُوا اللهَ ﷻ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ وَمَا كَانَ شَرَابُهُمْ؟ قَالَ الْبُسْرُ وَالتَّمْرُ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَنَسٍ وَأَنَسٌ فِي الْحَلْقَةِ كَانَتْ خَمْرُهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَمَا أَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ أَنَسٌ

I was standing amongst the uncles of my tribe serving them Fadikh while I was the youngest of them, when a person came and said: Verily the use of liqour has been prohibited. They said: Anas, spill it away. So I spilt it. He (one of the narrators. Sulaiman Taimi) said that he asked Anas what that was (the Fadikh). He said: It had been prepared from unripe and ripe dates. Abu Bakr b. Anas said: It was their liquor in those days. Sulaiman said: A person narrated it to me from Anas b. Malik that he had said so. (Using translation from Muslim 1980c)
