حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَدَاوُدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَزِيدُ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا نَادَى ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا وَالنَّاسُ حَوْلَهُ فَقَالَ أَسُنَّةً تَبْتَغُونَ بِهَذَا النَّبِيذِ أَمْ هُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ وَالْعَسَلِ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ جَاءَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَبَّاسًا فَقَالَ اسْقُونَا فَقَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا النَّبِيذَ شَرَابٌ قَدْ مُغِثَ وَمُرِثَ أَفَلَا نَسْقِيكَ لَبَنًا أَوْ عَسَلًا قَالَ اسْقُونَا مِمَّا تَسْقُونَ مِنْهُ النَّاسَ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارِ بِسِقَاءَيْنِ فِيهِمَا النَّبِيذُ فَلَمَّا شَرِبَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَجِلَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْوَى فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ أَحْسَنْتُمْ هَكَذَا فَاصْنَعُوا قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَرِضَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَلِكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ تَسِيلَ شِعَابُهَا لَبَنًا وَعَسَلًا
Husayn bin Abdullah and Dawud bin Ali bin Abdullah bin Abbas both narrate with some variation that a man called out to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) while people were sitting around him. He said: Do you use nabidh out of desire to act upon the Sunnah, or do you find it easier to use than milk and honey? Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the house of Sayyiduna Abbas and said: Give me something to drink. They said: Nabidh has been prepared, but it has been mixed with fingers and is somewhat dirty; shall we not give you milk or honey instead? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Give me to drink what you are giving to the people. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came, and with him were some of the Muhajirun and Ansar. Two water skins of nabidh were brought. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his blessed head quickly while drinking and said: You have done well; prepare it like this. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The expression of the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) approval in this matter is more beloved to me than if these valleys were to flow with milk and honey.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … From these ahadith it is understood that nabidh is permissible and lawful.
