I prepare it as a medicine, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: It is no medicine, but an ailment.
أَنَّ طَارِقَ بْنَ سُوَيْدٍ الْجُعْفِيَّ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ فَنَهَا أَوْ كَرِهَ أَنْ يَصْنَعَهَا فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا أَصْنَعُهَا لِلدَّوَاءِ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِدَوَاءٍ وَلَكِنَّهُ دَاءٌ
[Machine] It is said that Suwaid bin Tariq asked the Prophet ﷺ about alcohol, and he forbade it. Suwaid then said, "I make it for medicine." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, it is a disease and not a cure."
يُقَالُ لَهُ سُوَيْدُ بْنُ طَارِقٍ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ فَنَهَاهُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَصْنَعُهَا لِلدَّوَاءِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّهَا دَاءٌ وَلَيْسَتْ بِدَوَاءٍ
I prepare it as a medicine, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: It is no medicine, but an ailment. (Using translation from Muslim 1984)
أَنَّ طَارِقَ بْنَ سُوَيْدٍ الْجُعْفِيَّ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ فَنَهَاهُ أَوْ كَرِهَ لَهُ أَنْ يَصْنَعَهَا فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا نَصْنَعُهَا لِلدَّوَاءِ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِدَوَاءٍ وَلَكِنَّهُ دَاءٌ
[Machine] Suwaibid bin Tarik asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about alcohol, and he prohibited him from making it. He said, "Indeed, it is a medicine." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, "Verily, it is not a medicine, but it is a disease."
أَنَّ سُوَيْدَ بْنَ طَارِقٍ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ فَنَهَاهُ عَنْهَا أَنْ يَصْنَعَهَا فَقَالَ إِنَّهَا دَوَاءٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ دَوَاءً وَلَكِنَّهَا دَاءٌ»
[Machine] Swaid ibn Tariq asked the Prophet ﷺ about alcohol and said, "We make it." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade him from doing so. Swaid ibn Tariq then said, "O Messenger of Allah, it is a medicine." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "It is not a medicine, rather it is a disease."
أَنَّ سُوَيْدَ بْنَ طَارِقٍ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ وَقَالَ إِنَّا نَصْنَعُهَا فَنَهَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا دَوَاءٌ فَقَالَ ﷺ «إِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ بِدَوَاءٍ وَلَكِنَّهَا دَاءٌ»
