Abu al-Juwayriyah says: I asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) about al-badhaq. He said: Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) preceded al-badhaq: "Whatever intoxicates is unlawful." He said: (Drink) the lawful, pure drink, not the unlawful, foul one.
In the version from Muhammad bin Kathir, he said: The lawful, pure drink. He said: After the lawful and pure there is nothing but the unlawful and foul.
