حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، نَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ، نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ ، نَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " أَتَاهُ قَوْمٌ فَقَالُوا : يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا نَنْبِذُ النَّبِيذَ فَنَشْرَبُهُ عَلَى غَدَائِنَا وَعَشَائِنَا ، قَالَ : اشْرَبُوا وَكُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا نُكْسِرُهُ بِالْمَاءِ ، فَقَالَ : حَرَامٌ قَلِيلُ مَا أَسْكَرَ كَثِيرُهُ " .
Amr bin Shu'aib narrates from his father, from his grandfather: Some people came to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! We prepare nabidh and drink it morning and evening. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "You may drink it, but (remember) every intoxicating thing is forbidden." They said: O Messenger of Allah! We break (the strength of) its intoxication with water. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whatever intoxicates in large amounts, its small amount is also forbidden."
