9. Book of Drinks
٩۔ كِتَابُ الْأَشْرِبَةِ
[Machine] I used to be a bartender at the house of Abu Talha. He said, "The prohibition of alcohol has been revealed." He then ordered a caller to make an announcement, and the caller said, "Abu Talha, come out and see what this is." So I went out and said, "This is a caller announcing, 'Indeed, alcohol has been prohibited.'" He told me to go and pour it out. I poured it out in the streets of Madinah. Their alcohol on that day was called "al-Fadeekh" (a type of date wine). Some people said, "A people were killed while it was still in their stomachs." So Allah revealed the verse, "There is no blame upon those who believe and do righteous deeds for what they have eaten [in the past] if they fear Allah and believe" (Quran 5:93).
كُنْتُ سَاقِيَ الْقَوْمِ فِي مَنْزِلِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ قََالَ فَنَزَلَ تَحْرِيمُ الْخَمْرِ قَالَ فَأَمَرَ مُنَادِيًا فَنَادَى فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ اخْرُجْ فَانْظُرْ مَا هَذَا قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ فَقُلْتُ هَذَا مُنَادٍ يُنَادِي «أَلَا إِنَّ الْخَمْرَ قَدْ حُرِّمَتْ» فَقَالَ لِيَ اذْهَبْ فَأَهْرِقْهَا قَالَ فَجَرَتْ فِي سِكَكِ الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ وَكَانَتْ خَمْرُهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْفَضِيخَ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ قُتِلَ قَوْمٌ وَهِيَ فِي بُطُونِهِمْ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ {لَيْسَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جُنَاحٌ فِيمَا طَعِمُوا إِذَا مَا اتَّقَوْا وَآمَنُوا} [المائدة 93] الْآيَةَ
