[Machine] When the prohibition of alcohol was revealed, they said, "O Messenger of Allah, what about those who have died and used to drink alcohol?" So, the verse was revealed, "There is no blame upon those who believe and do righteous deeds for what they have eaten [in the past]."

لَمَّا نَزَلَ تَحْرِيمُ الْخَمْرِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ الَّذِينَ مَاتُوا وَيَشْرَبُونَ الْخَمْرَ فَنَزَلَتْ {لَيْسَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جُنَاحٌ فِيمَا طَعِمُوا} الْآيَةَ
