A person presented to Messenger of Allah ﷺ a small water-skin of wine. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: Do you know that Allah has forbidden it? He said: No. He then whispered to another man. Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him what he had whispered. He said: I advised him to sell that, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Verily He Who has forbidden its drinking has forbidden its sale also. He (the narrator) said: He opened the waterskin until what was contained in it was spilt. (Using translation from Muslim 1579a)
ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ أَهْدَى رَجُلٌ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رَاوِيَةَ خَمْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَلْ عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ اللهَ حَرَّمَهَا؟» يَعْنِي وَكَلِمَةً مَعْنَاهَا فَسَارَّ إِنْسَانًا إِلَى جَنْبِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «بِمَ سَارَرْتَهُ؟» قَالَ أَمَرْتُهُ أَنْ بِبَيْعِهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ الَّذِي حَرَّمَ شُرْبَهَا حَرَّمَ بَيْعَهَا» فَفَتَحَ الْمَزَادَتَيْنِ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ مَا فِيهِمَا
"When the Verses of Riba were revealed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up on the Minbar and recited them to the people, then he forbade dealing in wine." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4665)
لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ آيَاتُ الرِّبَا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَتَلَاهُنَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ ثُمَّ حَرَّمَ التِّجَارَةَ فِي الْخَمْرِ
