حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ أَبِي عُمَرَ الْبَهْرَانِيِّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، يَقُولُ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " يُنْتَبَذُ لَهُ أَوَّلَ اللَّيْلِ فَيَشْرَبُهُ إِذَا أَصْبَحَ يَوْمَهُ ذَلِكَ ، وَاللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي تَجِيءُ ، وَالْغَدَ وَاللَّيْلَةَ الْأُخْرَى ، وَالْغَدَ إِلَى الْعَصْرِ ، فَإِنْ بَقِيَ شَيْءٌ سَقَاهُ الْخَادِمَ أَوْ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَصُبَّ " .

وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَلَفٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ يَحْيَي أَبِي عُمَرَ النَّخَعِيِّ ، قَالَ : سَأَلَ قَوْمٌ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ بَيْعِ الْخَمْرِ وَشِرَائِهَا وَالتِّجَارَةِ فِيهَا ، فَقَالَ : أَمُسْلِمُونَ أَنْتُمْ ؟ قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَصْلُحُ بَيْعُهَا وَلَا شِرَاؤُهَا وَلَا التِّجَارَةُ فِيهَا ، قَالَ : فَسَأَلُوهُ عَنِ النَّبِيذِ ، فَقَالَ : " خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ ، وَقَدْ نَبَذَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فِي حَنَاتِمَ وَنَقِيرٍ وَدُبَّاءٍ ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَأُهْرِيقَ ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِسِقَاءٍ فَجُعِلَ فِيهِ زَبِيبٌ وَمَاءٌ فَجُعِلَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ، فَأَصْبَحَ فَشَرِبَ مِنْهُ يَوْمَهُ ذَلِكَ وَلَيْلَتَهُ الْمُسْتَقْبَلَةَ وَمِنَ الْغَدِ حَتَّى أَمْسَى ، فَشَرِبَ وَسَقَى فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ أَمَرَ بِمَا بَقِيَ مِنْهُ فَأُهْرِيقَ " .
Yahya Abu 'Umar al-Nakhai reported that some people asked Ibn Abbas (RA) about the sale and purchase of wine and its commerce. He asked (them): Are you Muslims? They said, Yes. Thereupon he said: Its sale and purchase and its trade are not permissible. They then asked him about Nabidh and he said: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) went out on a journey and then came back and some persons amongst his Companions prepared Nabidh for him in green pitcher, hollow stump and gourd. He commanded it to be thrown away, and it was done accordingly. He then ordered them (to prepare it) in a waterskin and it was prepared in that by steeping raisins in water, and it was prepared in the night. In the morning he drank out of that and on that day and then the next night, and then on the next day until the evening. He drank and gave others to drink. When it was morning (of the third night) he commanded what was left of that to be thrown away.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Maulana Abdul Aziz Alvi
Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: This hadith establishes that dates or raisins soaked in water for two or three days do not produce intoxication. Therefore, as long as there was no risk of intoxication, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would continue to drink it. When the possibility of intoxication arose, in the beginning, he would give it to a servant to drink. However, if any effect of intoxication was detected, he would order it to be discarded.

Benefit: Nabidh remains usable for up to three days in winter and only one day in summer.

Benefits and Issues:
In the cold season, intoxication does not develop quickly; therefore, if dates and the like have been added in appropriate quantity, nabidh remains usable for two or three days as well.
However, when it is felt that some intoxication must have developed in it, then it should be discarded.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
In the narration of Aisha radi Allahu anha, mention is made of one day and night. It is possible that during the summer season, when there was a risk of it becoming intoxicating, he (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would suffice with only one day and night, and during winter or other times, he would drink it for two or three days. Furthermore, this nabidh was prepared in a leather waterskin, as is explicitly stated in the narration of Aisha radi Allahu anha; therefore, even if it remained for a longer period, there was no risk of intoxication, rather at most it could become sour. Thus, both narrations are correct. The objective is to avoid intoxication.

Urdu marginal note:
"They used to drink it," provided that there was no risk of intoxication. When there was a risk of intoxication, they would pour it away.

(1) “Sediment, etc.” — that is, they used to wash away the dregs and impurities of the previous nabidh (date-infused drink) and would not include them in the new nabidh, because due to remaining for a longer period, there was a possibility of intoxication. Whereas those who desire intoxication especially keep it included so that it ferments well and becomes strong.
(2) “Like honey” — that is, it used to be purely sweet. There was no sourness in it. Obviously, in one night or one day, there is no possibility of sourness developing. Although absolute sourness does not make nabidh unlawful when there is no intoxication—after all, vinegar is also sour, and it is, by consensus, lawful and permissible.
