Hadith 5752

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ , قَالَ : أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ , عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ , عَنْ أَبِي مِسْكِينٍ , قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ , قُلْتُ : إِنَّا نَأْخُذُ دُرْدِيَّ الْخَمْرِ , أَوِ الطِّلَاءِ , فَنُنَظِّفُهُ ثُمَّ نَنْقَعُ فِيهِ الزَّبِيبَ ثَلَاثًا , ثُمَّ نُصَفِّيهِ ثُمَّ نَدَعُهُ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ , فَنَشْرَبُهُ , قَالَ : " يُكْرَهُ " .
´It was narrated that Abu Al-Miskin said:` "I asked Ibrahim: 'We take the dregs of Khamr or Tila' (thickened grape juice) and clean them, then we soak it with raisins for three days, then we strain it and leave it until it matures, then we drink it.' He said: 'That is Makruh.'"

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Makruh (disliked) is of two types: makruh tahrimi and makruh tanzihi. Makruh tahrimi is like haram (prohibited). If here, by makruh, makruh tahrimi is meant, then this is correct and in accordance with the previous statements of Ibrahim (rahimahullah). This meaning should be given preference because the dregs of wine are also haram like wine itself. They also contain the effects of wine; therefore, any nabidh (fermented drink) in which they are included will also be haram, because even a single drop of wine is haram. And if by this, makruh tanzihi is meant—that it is better to abstain from it—then this would be according to the well-known opinion of the Hanafis, that intoxicating drinks other than wine may be consumed in lesser quantities, provided they do not intoxicate.
