It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) and some other Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (may Allah be pleased with them) sat together after the death of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and they mentioned the greatest of the major sins, but they had no (definite) knowledge about it. So they sent me to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) so that I could ask him about it. He told me that the greatest major sin is drinking wine. I came back and informed them, but they found that unlikely, and all of them went to him (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr, may Allah be pleased with them both). He told them that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A king of the Children of Israel seized a man and gave him the choice either to drink wine, or kill a child, or commit fornication, or eat the flesh of swine; otherwise, if he refused, they would kill him. The man chose to drink wine, and when he had drunk it, he could not hold back from any of the things they wanted him to do." And the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us at that time: "Whoever drinks it, his prayer is not accepted for forty nights; and he does not die while any of it is in his bladder except that Paradise is made forbidden to him; and if he dies within those forty days, he dies the death of Jahiliyyah (the Days of Ignorance)."
This hadith is narrated as a narration of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) from (the other) Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) only with this chain, and al-Darawardi (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in it.
It is like this in the printed edition of Dar al-Haramayn, and its editor indicated that it is the same in the original manuscript, while the correct name is "Amr" (bin al-As).
