Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

Ibn Daylami, who had settled in Bayt al-Maqdis, stayed in Madinah in search of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him). When he inquired about Abdullah, he was told that he had gone towards Makkah. He also set out after him, and upon arriving in Makkah, he learned that he had departed towards Ta’if. He set out for Ta’if in search of him and finally found him in a field. He was walking with a Qurayshi man, notorious for drinking wine, with their hands on each other's waists. When I met them, I greeted them with salam, and they replied to my greeting. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: What has brought you here? Where have you come from? I narrated the whole incident to him and then asked: O Abdullah bin Amr! Have you heard anything from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding wine? He said: Yes. (Upon hearing this) the Qurayshi withdrew his hand and left. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Whoever from my Ummah drinks wine, his prayer is not accepted for forty days."
