حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ الْبَحْرَانِيُّ قَالَ : نَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ حَمَّادِ بْنِ خُوَارٍ قَالَ : نَا حَمْزَةُ الزَّيَّاتُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ مُضَرِّبٍ قَالَ : قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ : اللَّهُمَّ بَيِّنْ لَنَا فِي الْخَمْرِ ، فَنَزَلَتْ : يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا تَقْرَبُوا الصَّلاةَ وَأَنْتُمْ سُكَارَى الْآيَةَ . فَدَعَا النَّبِيُّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- عُمَرَ ، فَتَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ ، فَكَأَنَّهَا لَمْ تُوَافِقْ مِنْ عُمَرَ الَّذِي أَرَادَ ، فَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ بَيِّنْ لَنَا فِي الْخَمْرِ ، فَنَزَلَتْ : يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْسِرِ قُلْ فِيهِمَا إِثْمٌ كَبِيرٌ فَدَعَا النَّبِيُّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- عُمَرَ ، فَتَلَاهَا عَلَيْهِ ، فَكَأَنَّهَا لَمْ تُوَافِقْ مِنْهُ الَّذِي أَرَادَ ، فَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ بَيِّنْ لَنَا فِي الْخَمْرِ ، فَنَزَلَتْ : يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنَّمَا الْخَمْرُ وَالْمَيْسِرُ وَالأَنْصَابُ وَالأَزْلامُ رِجْسٌ مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّيْطَانِ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ : فَهَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُنْتَهُونَ فَتَلَاهَا عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : انْتَهَيْنَا يَا رَبِّ . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ حَارِثَةَ إِلَّا حَمْزَةُ ، وَلَا عَنْ حَمْزَةَ إِلَّا حُمَيْدٌ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ . وَرَوَاهُ النَّاسُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي مَيْسَرَةَ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: 'Allahumma bayyin lana fi al-khamr' (O Allah, make clear for us a ruling concerning wine). Then this verse was revealed: "O you who believe, do not approach prayer while you are intoxicated." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and recited this verse to him, and it was as if it did not fulfil what Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) wanted. So he again said: 'Allahumma bayyin lana fi al-khamr' (O Allah, make clear for us a ruling concerning wine). Then this verse was revealed: "They ask you about wine and gambling. Say: In them is great sin." the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called him and recited this verse to him, but this too did not fulfil what he wanted, so he again said: 'Allahumma bayyin lana fi al-khamr' (O Allah, make clear for us a ruling concerning wine). Then this verse was revealed: "O you who believe, wine, gambling, stone altars and divining arrows are only filth from the work of Satan," up to His words: "So will you not desist?" When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse to him, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) exclaimed: "O our Lord, we have desisted."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Abu Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him) by way of Harithah (may Allah have mercy on him) except Hamzah (may Allah have mercy on him), and no one from Hamzah (may Allah have mercy on him) except Humayd (may Allah have mercy on him); and Muhammad bin Ma'mar (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it. Other people, however, narrated it from Abu Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him), from Abu Maysarah Amr bin Shurahbil (may Allah have mercy on him)."
