Chapter on What Is Not Permissible of Nabidh and What Has Been Reported Regarding Nabidh in Jars
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 7496 — on What Is Not Permissible of Nabidh
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْجَسْرِيُّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ مَعْقِلَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ الشَّرَابِ فَقَالَ كُنَّا بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَكَانَتْ كَثِيرَةَ التَّمْرِ فَحَرَّمَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْفَضِيخَ وَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ أُمٍّ لَهُ عَجُوزٍ كَبِيرَةٍ أَنَسْقِيهَا النَّبِيذَ فَإِنَّهَا لَا تَأْكُلُ الطَّعَامَ فَنَهَاهُ مَعْقِلٌ
Abu Abdullah Jasri narrates: He says, I asked Sayyiduna Ma'qil bin Yasar (may Allah be pleased with him) about a drink. He said: This is from the time when we were in Madinah, where there were many dates. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had forbidden for us that drink which is made from dates and is called Fadheekh. A man came to Ma'qil and asked him: My mother is old, she is very aged, she cannot eat food, can we give her Nabidh to drink? Sayyiduna Ma'qil (may Allah be pleased with him) forbade him from doing so.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … It has already been mentioned that nabidh is permissible. It is possible that the drink which this man is referring to as nabidh may actually develop intoxication.
