عُمَيْرٌ الْعَبْدِيُّ أَبُو الْأَشْعَثِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ came and the delegation of Abd al-Qays wanted to leave. They said, "You have memorized everything you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so ask him about wine for us." So they went to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we are in a land that is barren and the only thing that can benefit us here is drinking." He said, "What is your drink?" They said, "Wine." He asked, "In what do you drink it?" They said, "In the small container." He said, "Do not drink in the small container." They said, "By Allah, our people will not be pleased with us if we do not drink in the small container." So they returned and asked him again, and he gave them the same answer. Then they came back and he said, "Do not drink in the small container, for one of you will strike a blow from which he will never recover until the Day of Resurrection." They laughed and he asked, "What are you laughing at?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, by the One who sent you with the truth, we have indeed drunk from the small container and some of us hit others, causing them to be crippled until the Day of Resurrection."  

الطبراني:١٤٢٥١حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ غَنَّامٍ ثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَفْدُ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ فَلَمَّا أَرَادُوا الِانْصِرَافَ قَالُوا قَدْ حَفِظْتُمْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ سَمِعْتُمُوهُ فَسَلُوهُ عَنِ النَّبِيذِ فَأَتَوْهُ؟ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إنَّا بِأَرْضٍ وَخِمَةٍ لَا يُصْلِحُنَا فِيهَا إِلَّا الشَّرَابُ قَالَ «وَمَا شَرَابُكُمْ؟» قَالُوا النَّبِيذُ قَالَ «وَفِي أَيٍّ تَشْرَبُونَهُ؟» قَالُوا فِي النَّقِيرِ فَقَالَ «لَا تَشْرَبُوا فِي النَّقِيرِ» فَقَالُوا وَاللهِ لَا يُصالِحُنا قَوْمُنَا عَلَى هَذَا فَرَجَعُوا فَسَأَلُوهُ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ عَادُوا فَقَالَ «لَا تَشْرَبُوا فِي النَّقِيرِ فَيَضْرِبَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْكُمْ ضَرْبَةً لَا يَزَالُ مِنْهَا أَعْرَجَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ» فَضَحِكُوا فَقَالَ «وَأَيُّ شَيْءٍ تَضْحَكُونَ؟» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقّ لَقَدْ شَرِبْنَا فِي نَقِيرٍ لَنَا فَقَامَ بَعْضُنَا إِلَى بَعْضٍ فَضَرَبَ هَذَا ضَرْبَةً أَعْرَجَ مِنْهَا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
