Abdullah bin Abi Qatadah said that his father Abu Qatadah forbade mixing raisins and dried dates, mixing unripe dates and fresh dates, and mixing dates beginning to take on colour and fresh dates. He said: Make nabidh (drink) from each separately. He (the narrator Yahya) said: Abu Salamah bin Abdur-Rahman narrated to me this tradition on the authority of Abu Qatadah from the Prophet ﷺ

Shaykh Abdul Sattar al-Hammad
Hadith Commentary:
Preparing nabidh by mixing ripe and semi-ripe dates, or similarly by making juice from mixing raisins and dates, is prohibited because doing so causes the mixture to ferment quickly and the drink soon becomes intoxicating. Therefore, this type of nabidh has been forbidden.
If nabidh is prepared from these items separately, then there is no harm.
And Allah knows best.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
The purpose of the chapter is that nabidh should be prepared in leather waterskins instead of earthenware pots and the like (only the mouth of a leather waterskin can be tied). Intoxication develops quickly in pots, especially those coated with tar.
