It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Among those before you there was a man who bought wine, mixed water into it and turned part of it into water. Then he took it and sold it and obtained dinars for it. He put them in a purse, boarded a ship at sea, and took a monkey along with him. When they were at sea, the monkey took the purse and climbed and climbed until it sat on the top of the mast. Then it opened the purse and began throwing one dinar into the sea and one dinar into the ship, until it had finished all that was in the purse. The monkey did all this because the man had cheated."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Abu Hamzah except Amr bin Salih; Amir bin Ibrahim is alone in narrating it."
