أَخْبَرَنَا
أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا
حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا
ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ
أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ سَاقِيَ الْقَوْمِ فِي مَنْزِلِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، قَالَ: فَنَزَلَ تَحْرِيمُ الْخَمْرِ، قَالَ: فَأَمَرَ مُنَادِيًا فَنَادَى، فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ: اخْرُجْ فَانْظُرْ مَا هَذَا . قَالَ: فَخَرَجْتُ فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا مُنَادٍ يُنَادِي: "أَلَا إِنَّ
الْخَمْرَ قَدْ حُرِّمَتْ" . فَقَالَ لِيَ: اذْهَبْ فَأَهْرِقْهَا، قَالَ: فَجَرَتْ فِي سِكَكِ الْمَدِينَةِ . قَالَ: وَكَانَتْ خَمْرُهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْفَضِيخَ . فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ: قُتِلَ قَوْمٌ وَهِيَ فِي بُطُونِهِمْ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: لَيْسَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جُنَاحٌ فِيمَا طَعِمُوا إِذَا مَا اتَّقَوْا وَآمَنُوا سورة المائدة آية 93.
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was serving wine to people in the house of Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) when the prohibition of wine was revealed, and (the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him) had a proclaimer announce (the prohibition). So Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Go and see what this announcement is. So I went outside (and saw) that the proclaimer was announcing that wine has been made unlawful. Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me: Go and pour it out. (So they poured out all the wine) which began to flow in the streets of Madinah. In those days, it was date wine. Some people said: Many people were martyred in such a state that wine was still in their stomachs. Then Allah the Exalted revealed this verse: «لَيْسَ عَلَى الَّذِيْنَ .....» [المائده: 93/5], meaning: Those who believe and do righteous deeds, there is no sin upon them for what they consumed before, when they feared Allah and believed... etc.
