Musnad Abi Ya'la 2590 — a man set out from his home while wine was

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man set out from his home while wine was still lawful. He wanted to present a large water-skin of wine as a gift to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He brought it loaded on a camel, driving it, until he found the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) seated. He asked: "What is this you have with you?" He said: It is a large skin of wine which I have presented to you as a gift. He said: "Do you know that Allah Almighty has made it unlawful?" He said: No. He said: "Allah Almighty has indeed made it unlawful." The narrator said: The man turned to the one leading the camel and said something to him in his ear. He asked: "What did you say to him?" He said: I told him to sell this wine. He said: "Indeed, the One who made drinking it unlawful has also made selling it unlawful." The narrator said: Then the man ordered the lower spout of the water-skin to be opened. It was opened and the wine flowed out onto the ground. I saw it flowing in the plain of al-Batha', until nothing was left in the skin.
